Well, I don't have any answers for your problems, instead I got some
of my own.

make world stops when trying to compile CVS.  I usually fix this with
adding a #include "../lib/config.h" in cvs/cvs.h.  There are some
warnings but it compiles to the end.

Well, I grabbed the 2.2-SNAP source dist, installed them and made
world.  But I wasn't able to make a new kernel.  It complains that
i386/eisa/aha1742.c contains a prototype declaration of ahbintr() that
conflicts with the one in ioconf.h.  I'm suspecting that I got the
wrong aha1742.c, because the loader also complains about various
symbols starting with _eisa_* that he couldn't resolve.  What is the
correct version?  I got 1.49 from 1996/01/29.

Can someone help me?
