	Yes, I cvsupped immediately before rebuilding. That's the entire
problem.

	The current best attempt has been to remove /usr/src and /usr/obj,
cvsup to checkout a fresh 4-STABLE tree as of this afternoon, and try to
build libc. But that's not working. So while what's causing libc to not
compile is probably not related to the patch, what it means is that
we're all effectively left without a solution to the ftpd overflow
problem until the build error in mpool.c is dealt with.

	I cvsup 4-STABLE every night. I sort of thought that was what "tracking
-STABLE" meant. It's so I don't have to worry about downloading patches.
