Well, I seem to recall having to tinker slightly with the INSTALL
notes in order to make a proper release.  I don't remember the
details though.

I decided to try the very same snapshot I had made in the
diskless configuration.  It worked!  I even managed to do a
manual installation (through some trial and error) onto the the
433t system.  All binaries seem to work fine; no SIGILLs at all.

I suspect that possibly the miniroot generation is not quite
there yet in a cross build environment.
