Similar experience upgrading 2.2.7 Stable to 3.0 Release.
It broke at this point during install with:

  Searching library directory /usr/local/lib/m3/FreeBSD2 for a.out
  libraries...
  ldconfig: /usr/local/lib/m3/FreeBSD2/aout: No such file or directory
  *** Error code 255

Making the directory and rerunning the aout-to-elf-install, it all
worked ok and the system booted up fine with the supplied generic kernel.

Checking the system and from the install log files I note
a number of libraries weren't moved due to schg flag being set.

  Move libc_r.so.3.0 from /usr/lib to /usr/lib/aout
  mv: rename /usr/lib/libc_r.so.3.0 to /usr/lib/aout/libc_r.so.3.0: Operation
  not permitted

They are installed anyway by the aout libs created during the build
so I deleted them manually afterwards.
A number of dangling symlinks to libraries were also left over and removed
afterwards.
