Going from 2.2.8-R to 3.x requires you to do a 'make upgrade' or a 'make
aout-to-elf-build' followed by a 'make aout-to-elf-install' because all
sorts of important things get changed.

I've seen some people suggest on this list that you'd have an easier
time doing a binary reinstall of FreebSD, since the aout to elf jump is
a big one.
