I finally worked out my problem. I had been playing with the device
driver code and somehow my enivronment that I was using to build
my kernel in got messed up. Doing a "make clean" in
/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/<MYCONF> wasn't enough; I had to
do a config <MYCONG> in /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/conf.
Thanks to all with suggestions.
