Recent Joyride builds busted bad

Missing /usr/lib/modules/<kernel>/*.dep, etc. This is fixed by doing a
"depmod -a" after upgrading.
But there's also chunks of filesystem missing:
/var/lock/subsys/{a-bunch-of-things}
/var/run/dbus
/security
/var/lib/stateless/{a-bunch-of-things}
I looked at the build.logs for 1438, 1437, and 1436, and there's nothing
that really leaps out at me as a cause for this.
The upshot of this is that HAL hangs for a long time (perhaps waiting
for a dbus that will never appear, because DBUS
failed to start due to /var/run/dbus not being there).
X fails to start as well, with init doing its darndest to get it
started, in an annoying infinite loop.
A couple of RC scripts failed to find the "find" command, which perhaps
explains missing chunks of filesystem
(particularly under /var???).
It's a frooking mess, I'd say :-)
