Re: signal 12's everywhere on Current with update this morning.

If this is true, perhaps the "build" man page should be updated.  
Here's what the man page has to say on the topic:

     The ``approved'' method of updating your system from the latest 
sources
     is:

           make buildworld
           make buildkernel KERNCONF=FOO
           make installkernel KERNCONF=FOO
           make installworld
           mergemaster
     After running these commands a system reboot is required...

This gives the impression that you're safe running all the builds 
without rebooting, especially as the word "approved" is used.

:

: 3. *reboot* (with new kernel and old userland)

Into single user...

: 4. make installworld
: 5. mergemaster
: 6. *reboot*
This is the order that's recommended in UPDATING since 3.something.
