John Birrell 11fb97daa7 E-day build system changes.
- Moved most of the guts of Makefile to Makefile.inc1 to become the
  backend for the build system.
- The new Makefile doesn't suffer from problems including the wrong
  sys.mk because it doesn't use anything in there or bsd.own.mk. So,
  from now on, the proper build command is just `make world' (or
  buildworld).
- The intermediate makefiles called Makefile.inc0 and Makefile.upgrade
  fiddle with the OBJFORMAT and MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX variables so that
  both aout and elf object trees can coexist. Makefile.upgrade contains
  the aout->elf transition build.
- A cross build environment is now very close to reality. Specifying
  TOOLDIR, setting OBJFORMAT and MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX allow that.

See the comments in Makefile for more info.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel and the contents of /etc.  Please see the top of the Makefile
in this directory for more information on the standard build targets
and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel with config(8) is a somewhat more involved process,
documentation for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file LINT contains entries for all possible devices, not
just those commonly used, and is meant more as a general reference
than an actual kernel configuration file (a kernel built from it
wouldn't even run).
