Hi Glen,
I had the same problem after a make {install,build}world here yesterday.
Mine was performed from ground zero, having a clear /usr/obj and
checking out a fresh /usr/src after deleting the old one. I am
certain that I didn't have any cruft left over anywhere.
I cvsupped again last night, blasted everything from /usr/{src,obj},
checked out new sources from my local repo. Then ran 'make includes'
before rebuilding and reinstalling everything.
Problem disappeared...
Cheers,
Jerry Hicks
