Great. Thanks for the confirmation. While the kernel does make it to 
cpu_switch(), I know there are some other issues with initialization 
and in pmap.c that occur prior to that point. I'm currently mulling 
over how to fix them.

That's good to know for people running just on -stable. I believe the 
config version got bumped due to the change in where the compile 
directory is located. At least the instructions for cd'ing into the 
compile directory are correct for both -current and -stable. :-)

Thanks,
Mark
