I did some tests, it turns out that only RELENG_6 is affected. To be more specific, as ncurses lib is installed before libc. It gets broken. For 7 and above, it is fine because we install libc right after csu and before everything. One way to solve this is we install libc as early as possible, but I think it may be too risky at release cycle, so I would like to back out this change and add an UPDATING entry. Then check whether we can change the installation order of libc later. If you cvsup after 'Oct 24 14:32:33 2007 UTC', please do not upgrade until I send out all clear message. If you already broken your world, use this way in *single user*, /rescue/chflags noschg /lib/libc.so.6 /rescue/cp /usr/obj/usr/src/lib/libc/libc.so.6 /lib/ then you need reboot, after that continue installworld (this is what I just did).
