I bet you bim'ed your bootloader ages ago :-) The bootloader had
a bug regarding loading the symboltable. As long as nobody used
the symboltable everything was fine. Now that we have ddb the kernel
will notice this (when compiled with options ddb). Recreate the
boot programm and re-bim your boot partition.
