I've just upgraded from 386BSD to FreeBSD EPSILON.  I did a binary upgrade and then
installed the source distribution.  Is there any reason I need to build the entire
source distribution at this point, or is the binary distribution complete?  I don't
mind doing the build, I just want to know if it's a waste of time.

Are there any recommended patches for FreeBSD EPSILON archived anywhere?
