By the time you posted your reply, I had already gone for
broke figuring there was a library call problem in make
buildworld since I found swapoff() in libc
shutdown now
sync
cd /usr/src
make installkernel
reboot
boot -s
fsck -y
sync
cd /usr/src
make installworld
mergemaster
reboot
boot -s
fsck -y
exit ... and all's well that ends well.
Well, this aint the way to do it, but all's fair in love and
war; I assumed (even though assumption is cockup's mother) I
would get a link with the new installed libraries given the
bottom line that swapoff is in libc. Sure enough:
cd /usr/src/sbin/swapon
make
/usr/bin/gcc -O -pipe -Wall -Wno-format-y2k -Wno-uninitialized \
-static -o swapon swapon.o
cp /usr/obj/usr/src/sbin/swapon/swapon /sbin
chmod 0555 !$/swapon
Again, the problem from my perspective is that 'make
buildworld' is failing to find includes and libs in the
build tree... but will heal itself (albeit incorrectly)
after installworld.
To prove the point, after installing the 1200 GMT 27 Dec
run, I moved the source slice forward 24 hours to 1200 GMT
28 Dec --buildworld completed with no errors even though the
cvs update list for the 24 hours did not show anything
relevant to swapon --eg: it links with system library libc,
not /usr/obj/usr/src/lib/libc.a as advertised.
In the last four or five months, I have had as many as ten
similar problems, usually includes. After going around on
the issue with you and Kris that I see problems with missing
includes and buildworld linking with /usr/obj/..., I just do
not report them. The fact that they are self-healing ex post
facto is not the way it should be.
From my perspective, I don't care how I get there --eg:
all's well that ends well. Suggestions and solutions
welcome; sniping to /dev/null.
Details to Steve's requests follow.

yeah, I figured it was ... That's when I decided to go for
broke, install it, and hand link swapon (successfully)
