Hi:

This has not been my day.  I am trying to build a new system, and it
started when I accidentally installed the new ld & friends before
I built a system.  Everything dynamic started crashing.

Fine, I went back to the latest binary snapshot that I've seen, which
is May 2nd.  I recovered all the utilities, but my kernel is June 7th,
because the generic kernels don't work on my machine.

I can't build a new kernel, and for the same reason I couldn't build it
this morning.  I get many lines of errors like the following:


making sure the kern library is up to date...
rm -f machine &&  ln -s /usr/src/sys/lib/libkern/../../arch/i386/include machine

   ... Much deleted because you see the trend ...

Stop.

I don't know what is causing things to act up like that now.  Anybody
know?

At least I've got my system in a semi-working state, so it isn't totally
critical.
