   20011006:
           /etc/mtree/NetBSD.dist has been updated to take advantage of
           absolute path support added to mtree(8). Older mtree(8)s don't
           understand the format.
   
           Solution: update and reinstall usr.sbin/mtree
   
   20011004:
   
           Crunchgen has been updated to work via reach-over makefiles. Updating
           is suggested before running a snapshot build
   
   20010922:
           The new toolchain is enabled on i386.  This new build method
           is intended to make all the upgrade issues elsewhere in UPDATING
           obsolete (stay tuned...).
   
           i386 platform builds must now set TOOLDIR in mk.conf or the
           environment in order to build the system.  This is a pathname
           where host build tools will be installed, and must NOT be
           the same as src/tools.
   
           (Optionally, USETOOLS=no can be set in the environment if you
           wish to avoid using the separate host toolchain for building a
           subtree.  Otherwise, this will default to "yes" automatically.)
   
   20010915:
           The new "ubcperf" code committed by Chuck Silvers removed
           a header file, uvm/uvm_vnode.h.  There may be stale .depend
           files that still reference this file.
   
           Solution: "make cleandir && make dependall" in affected
           directories.
   
   20010803:
           grep.info is now built from grep.texi using makeinfo.  Since it
           requires makeinfo v4.0, you need to install new texinfo before
           building gnu/usr.bin/grep.  To install new texinfo, please follow
           the instruction described in 20010726 entry.
   
   20010803:
           (i386 only): i386 kernel now uses new instructions like fxsave which
           old gas doesn't understand.  To build the kernel successfuly, you
           need to build and install new gas (gnu/usr.bin/gas.new).
   
 20010731:  20010731:
