Hi Glen,

I had the same problem after a make {install,build}world here yesterday.

Mine was performed from ground zero, having a clear /usr/obj and
checking out a fresh /usr/src after deleting the old one.  I am
certain that I didn't have any cruft left over anywhere.

I cvsupped again last night, blasted everything from /usr/{src,obj},
checked out new sources from my local repo.  Then ran 'make includes'
before rebuilding and reinstalling everything. 

Problem disappeared...

Cheers,

Jerry Hicks
