Sigh..

Yes, but if you need the tools you just compiled in your
cross-compilation for cross-compilation itself, you'll have a big
problem. And that's almost exacly what happens when building world...

Using -DNOTOOLS should allow you to build a -current world without
installing a new kernel.

Stay focussed people!
