Followed by "mergemaster -p", and then, as Chris said,
"make installworld" and "mergemaster".

But mergemaster probably isn't at issue.

Are you sure all the steps are completing properly?
I got myself in trouble once by scripting the process
without checking whether the previous operation
was successful......

FWIW, top and ps seem fine to me:

FreeBSD archangel.daleco.biz 6.0-BETA5 FreeBSD 6.0-BETA5 #0: Thu Sep 22 
18:17:26 CDT 2005     
root@archangel.daleco.biz:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386

So if someone has broken it, which I doubt, it happened
today or late yesterday.  I've seen nothing on current,
but I've not searched for a PR, nor the releng "to do" list.

You didn't show your supfile; but I guess<?> that the output
of uname indicates that you got the right source....

What about `which top`  && `which ps`  and ls -l same?
