Since making the world and a new kernel with 4-STABLE sources cvsup'd
6/5/00 13:55 BST I am getting a warning/error during the device probes
at boot:

isa0: too many dependant configs (8)

I've checked back through /var/log/messages and it definitely didn't
appear until the first time I booted with the new kernel. It appears
to be harmless as everything is working fine, but what does it mean?

The previous make world was on 18/3 with sources cvsup'd the same day.
