This is an obvious mistake, closing an if block with "esac".
You should be able to mount / read/write if it's not already that way,
mount /usr if you've separated it, edit /etc/rc, remove the ";;" line
(427) and change that following "esac" to "fi".
My -STABLE /etc/rc dated 18th May is fine (though I can see several
differences in this section) and I didn't see this obviously get fixed in
CVS[1], so I suspect Jon's merge might have borked.
