This occurs when building xenocara after updating /usr/src, /usr/ports, /usr/xenocara to -stable from cvs and successfully building kernel and src: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- checking for XDMCP...

How embarrassing ... and, as I feared, blindingly obvious, when I looked at the build output with fresh eyes.

I had reproduced this on several machines, and had consistently done the same thing every time: built kernel, built src, made release of src (you can see this coming, right?), built xenocara.

I was the victim of my own environmental pollution. Re-setting DESTDIR resolved the problem.

If there's a chance that I'm not the only one who might be blockheaded enough to miss this when working linearly through FAQ section 5, it might be wise to note in FAQ 5.5 that 'make build' will be interested in (and possibly led astray by) the value of DESTDIR exported in 5.4.

My apologies for the noise.
