Yes this is bootstrap.sh

I'll try to get time for it tomorrow night.  For sure by Friday.

No, I didn't change anything in make.conf.  I was using only the
defaults provided by stage1.

here is my make.conf

p12 tmp # more /etc/make.conf
# These settings were set by the catalyst build script that
automatically built this stage
CFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=i686 -fomit-frame-pointer"
CHOST="i386-pc-linux-gnu"
USE=""
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
