i've had problems reverting back from 4.4-stable by cvsuping to
RELENG_4_3.  i don't remember exactly where in the source it failed, but i
couldn't get make buildworld to go through even with make clean or by rm -
rf /usr/src && rm -rf /usr/obj and cvsuping fresh.  anybody else tried
rolling back from RELENG_4 to RELENG_4_3?
