I tried the simply approach of running "make clean; make build" in 
/usr/src/bin/sh, hoping it would generate binaries with the correct 
osversion in the .note.tag section. Boy, I couldn't be more wrong. 
Hence my (possibly wrongful) conclusion of wiping /usr/obj whenever 
osversion is increased. I'm probably missing a simpler step.
