Yup, that's what I get for reading one day then starting the work the 
next.  Restoring the headers doesn't change the outcome unfortunately.

I got another note saying I can't go from 4.11 to 6.0 directly, 
instead I have to move to 5.4 first...

Can I bypass that if I build 6.0 on a system already running 6.0, 
bring over /usr/src and /usr/obj, and proceed from there?
