Thanks to everyone for the help in getting a fresh build to work
on a newly supped src. Rebuilding make did the trick.

But in building a kernel, I got stopped twice at this point:

ld -N -p -Ttext F8004000 -e start -S -o netbsd ${SYSTEM_OBJ} vers.o
autoconf.o: Definition of symbol `_strchr' (multiply defined)
/usr/src/sys/arch/sparc/compile/HOME/lib/kern/libkern.o: 
Definition of symbol `_strchr' (multiply defined)
*** Error code 1


Thanks, Clarence
