Nope, I couldn't get a generic kernel to work either.  I ended up
re-installing 2.1.0 (ab)using the 'upgrade' option.  Now I'm trying 
to upgrade back to -current, but I get

cc -O2 -m486 -pipe -fno-strength-reduce -fomit-frame-pointer -I/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/ld -I/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/ld/i386   -c lib.c
In file included from lib.c:21:
/usr/include/ctype.h:121: warning: parameter names (without types) in function declaration
/usr/include/ctype.h:122: parse error before `___tolower'
/usr/include/ctype.h:122: warning: parameter names (without types) in function declaration
/usr/include/ctype.h:122: warning: data definition has no type or storage class
/usr/include/ctype.h:123: parse error before `___toupper'
[...]

The problem is that <ctype.h> references a type (_BSD_CT_RUNE_T_) that
is not defined anywhere in my source tree.  In desperation, I tried 
#defining it to _BSD_RUNE_T_, but cc doesn't seem able to pick up the
definition from <runetypes.h>, for some reason.

Ideas?
