I was the one who had reported the exact same problem. After an aborted attempt at trying to track the problem down, I gave up and did the following: 1. make buildworld (with the -current sources) 2. make installworld 3. build a new kernel 4. reboot 5. make aout-to-elf 8. reboot Just remember that before step #4, you want to keep copies of reboot and /bin/sh (look at Makefile.upgrade) and use that to reboot because of changed syscalls. Otherwise, everything went smoothly. I know it is a little bit of more hassle than just doing the make-aout-to-elf, but it was worth it since I only had the weekend in which to mess with my computer.
