It does look like an updating entry is needed for this badly.

I did the following things, some of which may not be needed, and now my 
-current boxes boot OK.

1.  update MAKEDEV from /usr/src/etc, run MAKEDEV all

2.  update /etc/rc /etc/rc.* /etc/defaults/rc.conf from /usr/src/etc

3.  add random_load="YES" to /boot/loader.conf

4.  update /etc/login.conf from /usr/src/etc

5.  do a "shutdown -r now" which creates the entropy file and reboots

Now the system boot does not hang at the ldconfig spots.  It does look like
there is a lot to do to get back on course, enough to justify adding to
UPDATING.

Later
