[hellas] 23 % ls -lgiF /bin/\[ /bin/test
131557 -r-xr-xr-x 2 root wheel 11664 Aug 23 05:16 /bin/[*

So no, that's not the problem.

Unfortunately, no, I can't re-install, or at least not without restoring
/usr (and probably / and /usr/obj) to before the damage, assuming I can figure
out exactly between which backups the damage occurred, which may not have been
at the time of the hang. I already had a recently built /usr/obj and tried to
install its contents. The failure of installkernel was how I discovered the
problem.
So I'm still stuck.
