Reason I'm asking is that I just finished a cvsup to update my local respository, did a cvs update of my RELENG_4 sources from that repository, then a buildworld, buildkernel, reboot, installworld, and ran into this same problem (can't install libsdbm.a because it relies on chmod). Since this thread came up over a month ago, I'd be perfectly happy to find out it has indeed been fixed, and that I somehow bungled the cvs operations. I can't find any history for src/Makefile.inc1 that would imply adoption of the workaround patch, and I don't understand the perl build process enough to know where to look in there. In this case, a whack of the clue-stick would be much appreciated. (The workaround still works, however.) Thanks!
