I was unable to set a root password with the system reporting the same
message as is below. I seem to remember JKH mentioning that it was due to
some linking problems with the relese posted on releng3. This was quickly
corrected (ie. I reinstalled since I had done a clean install just hours
earlier) and I guess those have this trouble should be able to fix it my
grabbing a newer snapshot. Just bad timing...

(I apologize if I've messed up the To: and CC: headers... its my first
time posting and if soneone would want to email me directly to let me know
who should be in each field, I'd appreciate it.)
