I had been doing semi-regular builds (twice weekly) up until early
June. However, kernel stability then became an issue for me.
Looking at snapshots.jp.freebsd.org, releases stopped being built 
on June 21, with the exception of July 7 and 8.
I've been given some useful suggestions. I shall now go and do some
more builds, then summarise the size changes to the list. It will
take a while - my -current build box is a PII-300 laptop.
