Monday and today's kernel do this to me right after autoconfig, right
   as it's beginning to fsck:

Let me guess.  You have now or at some point had `options FASTLINKS' in
your kerel, right?

There was a bug in ufs_readlink() due to the type changes which I just
fixed this afternoon.  In ufs_vnops.c, circa line 1429, change:

                return (uiomove(ip->i_symlink, ip->i_size, uiop));

to:

                return (uiomove(ip->i_symlink, (size_t)ip->i_size, uiop));

and you should be fine.
