Thank you all very much for pointing out what was wrong. It did lead to another question. I solved the problem and got top working again when I finally erased /usr/include/sys and copied /usr/src/sys/sys to /usr/include/sys (after running cvsup on the source tree of course). I thought `cd /usr/src/sys; make install' would have copied /usr/sys/sys to /usr/include/sys, but it doesn't. Where in the build process does /usr/include/sys get created?
