Aha!  I'm using 

./build.sh -O /usr/obj -T ../tools -u -U tools
./build.sh -O /usr/obj -T ../tools -u -U distribution
./build.sh -O /usr/obj -T ../tools -u -U kernel=GENERIC
./build.sh -O /usr/obj -T ../tools -U install=/

The files were not created yet by tools, distribution, or kernel.  Must 
be the install.  And nice to know I'm not alone.
