Used a2ps to merge separate files into one postscript document:

a2ps -1 --no-header --file-align=fill even.ps J.ps -o J2.ps
(The -1 is so it doesn't try to do two per page by default, because I had already done that.) To make only odd and then even pages from original files:
a2ps --no-header --pages=-2,5,6 --file-align=fill master.ps -o odd.ps
a2ps --no-header --pages=3-4 --file-align=fill master.ps -o even.ps

Also had to fix root's crontab. (The daily insecurity report was 349 KB.) **Also ssh files aren't in /etc/changelist so they weren't backed up.

The "make release" died after four hours at same place: ".//usr/src/distrib/utils/x_sh/mkinit: not found". I see same happened on March 5, 2002 (see in diary).

So I did a "make clean" under /usr/src/distrib/utils. **Why didn't this happen before?

Then set UPDATE=1, BUILD=1 and did "make release" again. Died again at same place after 43 minutes. So I did a "make distclean" under /usr/src/distrib and tried again. And 35 minutes it had same problem again!

So I unset UPDATE and tried again. And 4.5 hours later it died again.
