--- Comment #1 from Mark Johnston <markj@FreeBSD.org> ---
A quick hack which fixes the problem is to make sys/modules/nlsysevent/Make=
file
define NETLINK_MODULE.  But these parts of netlink_message_writer.h don't
really make sense:

 84 #if defined(NETLINK) || defined(NETLINK_MODULE)=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=
=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20
 85 /* Provide optimized calls to the functions inside the same linking uni=
t */
...
163 #else=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=
=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=
=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20
164 /* Provide access to the functions via netlink_glue.c */

The implementations in netlink_glue.c are just stubs that get defined when =
the
kernel is compiled without netlink support, so these comments are just wron=
g.=20
I'm not sure what the intent is.  Do we want to support loading netlink ker=
nel
modules even when the kernel is compiled without netlink support?
