Dear Stabilizers,

   The w command is broken on this system.  It's the only
broken thing I have noticed yet.  This system was upgraded
from 2.2.8 to 3.0-stable by the book at
http://www.ucb.crimea.ua/~ru/FreeBSD/30upgrade.html

   The garbage under the ----- below varies from time to time
I think.  Note that the user count = 0 is wrong, also.

w: /dev//å+Â6ttyp1: No such file or directory
 7:54PM  up 1 day,  6:30, 0 users, load averages: 0.01, 0.01, 0.00
 USER             TTY      FROM              LOGIN@  IDLE WHAT

         ------------
w: /dev//å+Â6ttyp1: No such file or directory
 7:50PM  up 1 day,  6:25, 0 users, load averages: 0.03, 0.01, 0.00
 USER             TTY      FROM              LOGIN@  IDLE WHAT

Her is the date of this system:
 wayne@barnes1:/home/wayne>wherex w
 -r-xr-sr-x  2 root  kmem  10368 Feb  9 12:30 /usr/bin/w*
 wayne@barnes1:/home/wayne>uname -a
 FreeBSD barnes1.wustl.edu 3.0-STABLE FreeBSD 3.0-STABLE #0: Tue Feb  9 13:14:45 CST 1999     wayne@barnes1.wustl.edu:/usr/src.3.0-stable/sys/compile/GENEONE  i386
 wayne@barnes1:/home/wayne>

   I tried doing a fresh sh MAKEDEV all, to no avail.  I notice
that the date on /dev/MAKEDEV is April 15, 1998.  Is it possible
that my upgrade [ make aout-to-elf-build; make aout-to-elf install ]
missed it?

   Thank you for your attention.
