You hit the nail on the head -- I have no /usr/src/share
directory. In addition, I found that the URL is slightly different
-- I am using
<ftp://ftp.fr.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-current/tar_files/src/share.tar.gz>,
which I assume is in the same location on the master NetBSD ftp site.
Once I've got this in place, I'll try re-updating with CVS, and
re-building.
Thanks!
