So maybe I just need to csup again and try again, "make buildworld" followed by "make buildkernel"?

Where do you find the number r235604 either in the built-and-installed system or the source tree? 

I looked in /usr/src/sys/conf/newvers.sh and some other files.

I had both 'device ata' and 'device atapicam' in kernel configuration, in accordance with online FreeBSD Handbook:

> 19.6.9 Using the ATAPI/CAM Driver
> Contributed by Marc Fonvieille.

> This driver allows ATAPI devices (CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD drives etc...) to be accessed through the SCSI subsystem, and so allows the use of applications like sysutils/cdrdao or cdrecord(1).

> To use this driver, you will need to add the following line to the /boot/loader.conf file:

> atapicam_load="YES"

> then, reboot your machine.

>     Note: If you prefer to statically compile the atapicam(4) support in your kernel, you will have to add this line to your kernel configuration file:

>     device atapicam

>     You also need the following lines in your kernel configuration file:

>     device ata
>     device scbus
>     device cd
>     device pass

>     which should already be present. Then rebuild, install your new kernel, and reboot your machine.

But there was nothing about 'options ATA_CAM', which I included.  Maybe you had atapicam kernel module which loaded in the absence of 'device atapicam' in kernel config?

Now I see in /usr/src/sys/conf/NOTES, ATA_CAM deprecates all ata drivers including atapicam.  So maybe I need to delete or put '# ' in front of 'device atapicam' in kernel config?  But it worked building 9.0_STABLE #6 from 9.0_RELEASE.

One other thing I could do would be to exclude module ulpt due to idiosyncrasies of HP printers and hplip.

Reason for upgrading to STABLE was spontaneous reboots in 9.0_RELEASE, like maybe once in 48 hours, plus modern hardware needing the latest driver updates.
