I think I know what's happening: [8:14pm]/tmp/xx-117# find -dx . -print ./1 ./2 ./3 ./4 . [8:14pm]/tmp/xx-118# find -dx . -print | cpio -dump /tmp/xx cpio: ./1: No such file or directory cpio: ./2: No such file or directory cpio: ./3: No such file or directory cpio: ./4: No such file or directory 0 blocks [8:15pm]/tmp/xx-119# l total 2 1 drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 May 28 20:15 ./ 1 drwxrwxrwt 6 root wheel 512 May 28 20:14 ../ [8:15pm]/tmp/xx-120# The 'bootstrap' target is probably the culprit, it can't be removing the symlinks and the cpio must be trying to copy the files over themselves (and unlinking them first). Are you using -DNOCLEAN by any chance?
