OK; did that, to sources as of main-n278527-07948e050808, then rebuilt
the kernel.

Seems to have done the job: this is a dedicated "build machine," so I
had a small challenge finding a suitable reproduction, but I saw that
/var/log/cron was getting updated every 5 minutes from atrun, so after
having booted:

freebeast(15.0-C)[5] uname -aUK
FreeBSD freebeast.catwhisker.org 15.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 15.0-CURRENT #264 main-n278527-07948e050808-dirty: Mon Jul  7 13:14:31 UTC 2025     root@freebeast.catwhisker.org:/common/S4/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/GENERIC amd64 1500051 1500051

I then:

freebeast(15.0-C)[5] sudo tail -F /var/log/cron

and after waiting a few minutes, I was gratified to see:

Jul  7 06:30:00 freebeast /usr/sbin/cron[2415]: (root) CMD (/usr/libexec/atrun)

show up.  Seems to be working. :-)

Thanks, Konstantin -- and Oleg! :-)

Peace,
david
