+	time_t and dev_t have been bumped to 64 bit quantities. To upgrade:
+	1. Make sure your kernel has COMPAT_50 in it. Build and install.
+	2. make sure build.sh completes and the binaries in a chroot work
+	   before installing.
+	3. If you don't use build.sh and you build directly to root, and
+	   your build breaks in the middle, don't dispair. Make sure headers
+	   are installed properly, and start building libraries first libc
+	   and libutil, install them and then continue building all the
+	   libraries in src/lib and src/gnu/lib and install them. Once
+	   the new libraries are installed, you can restart the build.
+	4. If you compile packages and you notice link time warnings,
+	   you'll need to bump them and rebuild them.
