Build turd issues you may not see in a Flag Day or a heads up...

Sometimes when you do an incremental build, you run into some fluff that kills your build:

==== cpio archives build errors (DEBUG) ====

Failed to create generic kernel archive:	200550 blocks
cpiotranslate: kernel/misc/amd64/sysinit: no packaging info
cpiotranslate: kernel/misc/sysinit: no packaging info

And everyone is supposed to know how to handle these:

[th199096@aus-build-x86 mms]> ls -al proto/root_i386/kernel/misc/amd64/sysinit
-rwxr-xr-x   1 th199096 staff       4200 Sep 25 21:22 proto/root_i386/kernel/misc/amd64/sysinit
[th199096@aus-build-x86 mms]> rm proto/root_i386/kernel/misc/amd64/sysinit proto/root_i386/kernel/misc/sysinit
[th199096@aus-build-x86 mms]> `which nightly` -in nightly.env

Hey, what do you know, Ken Erickson did have a Flag Day for those who maintain private copies of bfu; Heads up for everyone else], but it still does not mention cleaning up the turd on your own.

After all, everyone knows how to deal with these turds.

It's worth pointing out that you can safely ignore the messages.
