I have been tempted to work around this, but when I had the same task
(ie: upgrade 3.0-CURRENT from Dec 98 -> 4.2-stable) I discovered that there
is a lot more that is broken.

Dont forget -DNO_PERL. 'installworld' will destroy your system as just
about every single application will fail with a SIGSYS due to signal
calls.
I got around this by building a kernel elsewhere (basically a slightly
stripped GENERIC), booting that, and then doing something like:
make -k buildworld; make -k installworld, then repeating.
I think the only path that we "officially" support is 3.x -> 3.4-stable ->
4.0-R -> 4.x-stable. If one has a lot of persistance (and patience)
anything can be done. I did 3.0-CURRENT -> 4.2-RC on a very very slow link
(2000ms+ ping times) to a remote corner on the other side of the planet, on
a slow machine (486), no serial console, no remote power and 12-hour
turnaround if somebody needed to physically. I think the only reason I
survived was because I run a 4.2-RC kernel with the 3.0-current userland
for the duration of the build.
