Subject:   Going STABLE from CURRENT

PAM broke the other day, and after too long I realize that it is because I
have been running 5.0-CURRENT when I should be STABLE.

So now I want to get to 4.4-STABLE.  I removed /usr/src and reran cvsup for
RELENG_4.  Then I sucessfully ran make build/install kernel KERNCONF=GENERIC.

But now  make buildworld keeps failing at:

sys/boot/ficl
".depend", line 1: Need an operator
< hundreds more lines of the same snipped>

I finally located the offending file at
/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/boot/ficl/.depend and the first several lines appear as
garbage characters, but then the following words appear:

Created from source file
@/dev/pci./pci_if.m
with
@/kern/makeobj/ops.pl

But I don't know what to do with this information.

How can I get to STABLE from CURRENT?

P.S.  I initially posted this at freebsd-questions@freebsd.org and THEN I 
read Mark's reply, below.  I have followed his advice, including two runs 
of "make cleandir" and "rm -rf /usr/obj/*" but the problem repeats itself.

Hi

Clean up your source tree completely, and make sure there is no garbage.
("make cleandir" twice does most of that. 'rm -rf /usr/obj/*' does a bit
 more.)

Then cvsup your cources to the latest possible. (STABLE or CURRENT).

Then make world.

If that doesn't work, then please report the problem in great detail to
current@freebsd.org or stable@freebsd.org (not both) depending on which
version of freebsd you are using.
