For userland...
cd /usr/src; make build >& /var/tmp/mklog&
^^^^^
same thing in "xsrc", though that's usually optional.
pkgsrc requires a little more maintenence. You could try "make update"
at the top, and it would try to rebuild and reinstall every single
package, but at some point you'll encounter a conflict, if not an
outright failure, and the whole thing will stop. Probably best to be
judicious, and updgrade the packages little by little. They're all
basicly independent, except that from time to time you'll be prompted,
when upgrading one package, to upgrade another first.
