[... restore old kernel worked; new kernel does not work after fsck ...]

So we get:

 - 5.5-STABLE works well on your box
 - 6.2-RELEASE stock GENERIC works fine
 - 6.3-PRERELEASE failed for some reason.

So far as I am aware I have no clue why this could happen.  Could you
check if you have any special configuration in your /etc/make.conf,
especially special CFLAGS?  I usually simply remove my /usr/src /usr/obj
and build a new world without make.conf to make sure.

Cheers,
