Something does not seem right about that.  I also did a cvsup last night
(Jan 9th), at between 7pm and 8pm EST.  I did it because earlier in the
day I had seen the email about "4.5 RC1 Now available...".  I did the
usual buildworld/buildkernel/installkernel/installworld's.  'vmstat'
works for me.

More to the point, I get:

  (259) # uname -a
  FreeBSD santropez.acs.rpi.edu 4.5-RC FreeBSD 4.5-RC #0:
    Wed Jan  9 20:54:32 EST 2002
    root@santropez.acs.rpi.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/Dual-650P3  i386

Why is your system telling you that you're running 4.5-PRERELEASE when
I'm at 4.5-RC?  (though, actually, the timestamp in your 'uname' output
is *6pm* on the 9th, so I guess you must have done the cvsup a few hours
before I did mine)
