On a fresh install of 11.4-RELEASE, rebuilding the operating system
results in several files being deleted during the "make delete-old"
step. This surprised me. I wouldn't have expected this on a rebuild
of a new install without any updates applied. See below, but for
example /usr/bin/llvm-ar is present after the initial install but is then
removed by the "make delete-old" step. Is this to be expected?
Is the correct action to respond y when prompted about the files?
root at test:/usr/src # make -j 4 buildworld buildkernel
...
root at test:/usr/src # make installkernel
...
root at test:/usr/src # make installworld
...
root at test:/usr/src # make delete-old

To remove old libraries run 'make delete-old-libs'.
