It may be a bug in the kernel. A comedy of errors. Nearly my entire source tree is dated 1934 -- I'd been dual booting with an old linux kernel that scewed up my clock. I think what must have happened is that I updated a few files to 1934, introduced the initial failure, re-checked out my tree and made nearly everything be from 1934, then corrected the date sometime more recently. In any case, its all local pilot error. Thanks for your detailed explaination. Drew To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
