Sure, but that's not the point here.  You are strongly advised to
follow this list if you intend to run -current.  Even if you don't,
rebuilding /usr/sbin/config in case of trouble is always a good first
attempt in fixing...  (Actually, npx should indeed be marked
`optional' and not `mandatory', but that's another matter.  I didn't
knew it by the time i committed that change, and took the stale
comment about it being mandatory too serious.)

No, it's a logical consequence of the above error.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
