After upgrading to FreeBSD 11 on some of my sparc64 machines (Sun Ultra 10), I noticed some truly disturbing behavior. 1) ipfw won't work, at all. kldload ipfw ipfw add 100 allow all from any to any ipfw -a list you will get errors about invalid arguments. *HOWEVER* if you use the ipfw that was from a 10.x install (10.3 in my case), it works perfectly. ??? 2) fsck will destroy your filesystems clean filesystem, "fsck -t ufs /dev/foo" you will see more errors than you knew were possible. *HOWEVER* if you take a version of fsck from 10.x (again, 10.3 in my case) ***AND*** libufs.so from that (LD_LIBRARY_PATH), everything is fine I suspected this may have been because I did a 11 buildworld on a 10.3 machine and "something leaked" with respect to headers, so I id a fresh buildworld, and when that too didn't fix it, I grabbed install images and used binaries and reproduced both of these errors. What is going on here?
