already did more than once.  To expand on this a bit, I tried doing some links
in a context outside of make buildworld.  Symbolic links do work across
filesystems still but I continue to get errors when trying to make symbolic
links across filesystems that are on different disks.  I've contemplated
sending in a PR for it, but I'll still entertain that something wierd (and
fixable) is going on with my system in particular.  Here's some output from my
last try to link as well as uname -a output if it'll help...

dionysos# ln -sf /root/.login /usr/obj/.login.link.test
ln: /usr/obj/.login.link.test: Operation not supported

dionysos# uname -a
FreeBSD dionysos.yi.org 4.2-STABLE FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE #0: Thu Jan 11 12:43:58
