Hello.

I have tried rebuilding 1.6 release for i386 from the soruces present on 
the FTP.
I have cpuflags installed, and the parameters added to compilation are "-O2 
-march=pentiumpro".
I also had to comment out the building of rescue-small floppy since the 
built file was too big. But that's not the point.

The point is that, once the build command completed
(FYI "./build.sh -D /usr/tmp/destdir -R /usr/tmp/release -T 
/usr/src/tools/obj/tools.NetBSD-1.6-i386")
the base.tgz does /not/ contain a working base system. Every command I 
tried residing in /usr/{,s}bin dies with a core dump.
I suspect libc or some other core library did not take that nicely.

I have repeated the sequence a number of times (more than 3), no visible 
errors or stops happened.

Questions: Am I the only one to see this behaviour?
What can I do to have a working system possibly optimized for my 
architecture (i686)?

Thank you.
