Well, that's the point of breaking out src/include from include/. The
intent is that the src/ sub-tree will build self-consistently, so you can
change your source files (including .h files) without impacting your "real"
system files.

No; you'd "co -l ..." exclusively in the src/include one. The other is a
read-only copy of the release distribution.

I got a Zip drive sort of working; it looks like a defective unit, since
FreeBSD can't make it work right, either. The problem is in the SCSI
server, which doesn't do the right thing for dismountable media. The
workaround is to patch out the special case for dismountable and treat it
like a fixed disk.
