Hello list!

it may be a stupid question, but i'm a little bit scared before gmake
upgrade. I'm not using portupgrade, everything is build from the ports tree,
so, when some package is old, and there is newer version in ports, then make
all && make deinstall && make install && make clean. It works pretty fine
for now. But what about gmake?
Will I be able to compile new gmake sources when I'll do `make deinstall in
/usr/ports/devel/gmake` first?

gmake does not require gmake to build. If it did, how could you build
it for the first time?
