i thought that something like cvs diff at the start or end of the
build and including that in ${DESTDIR} could work.

but i haven't thought about adventurous missions such as modifying
source code during a build.

then i'll start build openbsd from source. sounds like extra fun
anyways.

thank you for the help!
