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...
