Eep - wish I had seen this sooner. I followed the solution implied in
the older thread by brute-force untarring the base system tarball (and
kernel, after some trial and error). I think I have a working system
now, and freebsd-update IDS seems happy with virtually everything that
wasn't locally modified, so I'm hopefully up and running again.

Thanks for the reply and the pointer to the bug - glad I'm not totally
crazy.
