Subject:   libc.so hosed - how to fix? WAS Re: Truss refuses to build?

This is an email sent to alpha@, but I thought I'd post it 
here.  Alpha-based systems running -current were (are?) having a problem 
building world and failing at the point of building truss.

===> usr.bin/truss
   cp /usr/src/usr.bin/truss/../../sys/kern/syscalls.master syscalls.master
   /bin/sh /usr/src/usr.bin/truss/../../sys/kern/makesyscalls.sh 
syscalls.master /usr/src/usr.bin/truss/i386.conf
   awk: floating point exception 8
    input record number 325, file
    source line number 87
   *** Error code 2

   Stop in /usr/src/usr.bin/truss.
   *** Error code 1

The suggested fix was to make and install libc and awk, then perform a 
buildworld.

Bugger...... my system has hosed libc.so.5 (actually, libc.so.anything 
isn't anywhere to be found), so now it seems like it can't do 
_anything_.  Could anyone offer advice on where to from here?

cheers,
Rob
