The Darwin Build Scripts 0.6 release is available[1].

Major improvements include:

* darwinbuild installs into /usr/local/bin (or any other PREFIX).
* A completely re-written darwinxref tool with plugin support
* Build directory hierarchy is now created with `darwinbuild -init  
8A428`
* Automatically fetches property lists for builds from OpenDarwin  
servers
     -- Currently 8C46, 8B15, 8A428, and 7W98 are supported
* All builds are performed in a chroot by default (use -nochroot to  
override).
* New `darwinbuild -depsbuild=8A428` argument helps bootstrap new builds
* darwintrace logging now resolves volfs (/.vol) paths to POSIX paths
* Automatically unmount devfs and volfs from the BuildRoot at exit
* Added support for manifests / uuids of roots that are created with  
DarwinBuild

The full list of changes is available on the web[2].   See the read me
