I have attempted to rebuild the ps I finally found a reference in the FAQ that answered this question. It is found at http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/install.html#AEN984 Although the question asked here did not describe the problem I was having, the answer to the question DID fix my problem. Thanks to Mark Lutgen for the quick response (as well as Colin Campbell). Mark put me on the trail. I don't know how frequently this comes up, but perhaps there could be a bit more documentation on when running "make world" is appropriate in the section of the Handbook that deals with building a custom kernel.
