I have been trying to update my system fro the last week or so. The
basic problem is that whenever I managed to catch a cvsup which did not
have pre-4.3 build errors, mergemaster consistently failed.
I used the "frozen" code to attempt another build, after failing this
weekend due to the large number of changes happening. It build
successfully, but mergemaster still fails in the same place:

I have never had problems with mergemaster before. And, yes, I am
following the proscribed order (buildworld, buildkernel, installkernel,
reboot, installworld, mergemaster).
Thanks for any help.
