I cvsup'ed 4.1-STABLE Friday and figured I could come in today and have
everything installed and running before everyone else comes to work
tomorrow. So I do make buildworld, no problem. I carefully go through
GENERIC, and LINT, and think I have my KEPLER configuration file OK,
but the first buildkernel completes successfully but throws some
warnings, and I decide to fix them (comment out the wdc0-related
lines), and it starts out fine but has a couple of warnings, so I go
back and re-read LINT carefully, and correct the offending lines and
try again and I get the message, /usr/src/sys/dev/ppbus/ppbus_if.h no
such file or directory, Error 1, Stop.

So I go to /usr/src/sys/dev/ppbus and grep for the header, and sure
enough about six files in there depend on it, and sure enough it isn't
there. So I crank up ftp and go looking in the source tree at
ftp.freebsd.org, and finally locate the right directory, and it isn't
there either!!! There *is* a file called ppbus_if.m, but no .h! And I
have the .m file already. Oh yeah, all the files have #include
"ppbus_if.h" rather than #include <ppbus_if.h>, so it should be in the
local directory, right?

Now I know lots of people have been building 4.1-STABLE without a
problem the last few days, so I must be doing something wrong, but at
this point I don't know where to look next. I have a printer port on
the machine, so I suppose I need the parallel port bus enabled in the
kernel. I don't see anything in LINT that suggests I *don't* need it.
What else?

Any suggestion would be appreciated.
