No. obj is for .o files and similar stuff, the actual
userland you're
building will show up in whatever dir you passed as
destination using
- -D

correct?
Yes, but I usually prefer building tarballs ( build.sh sets,
they'll
show up in whatever you passed as release dir -R ) - tar
xpzf base.tgz
etc., then run 'postinstall fix' to get rid of obsolete
files an such (
make sure /usr.src points at your sources or postinstall
won't work )
With tarballs you can build everything on FreeBSD and just
unpack on
the Mac.

Eh, it's a bit hard to grasp first, I had my own troubles
with it years
ago. Don't feel bad about that, everyone's been there. The
main
advantage is that we can cross-build everything anywhere and
the build
host doesn't even have to run NetBSD, just some halfway
modern not too
weird UNIXish OS.

Build tarballs, unpack them on the mac, run postinstall
fix.
have fun
