 On Kent's advice, I had a look at the above url. I've seen it before, and
been there before, but hey, can't be my nice new-used computer hardware can
it?

 I did remove /usr/src and cvsup'd down 4.2-Release. Not that I need to
build world (cause I was already running 4.2-R) but I thought I'd try, and
it blew up in various places.

 So then I figured, hell, I have two CPU's, lets try and build a custom
kernel, which also failed in various places.

 So back to the above url. Basically, all I did was reload the factory
defaults in the BIOS and presto! I was able to compile the custom kernel in
one fell swoop. Reboot, and yeaaah baby, two CPU's are working.

 I immediately cvsup'd down 4.3RC and buildworld and makekernel ran with no
problems what so ever.

 So I'm off to the races !
