I did a buildworld using CPUTYPE=i586 on a p3 and tried to upgrade from 4.6-RELEASE in a 586 via nfs, which failed. I then did an install on the p3 of the i586 build. Then I did a buildworld again, still with CPUTYPE=i586. After fixing some problems with libtelnet.a not having been built (which didn't break the install on the p3, but did on the 586), an nfs install worked. Could it be that the first buildworld was linking against the system (p3) C libraries and not the new ones? I'm not familiar enough with the code to find this.
