So, makekeys in the XFree86 4.3.0 (from xsrc) on -current/i386 is dumping
core, and thus hosing the entire build, because the keymaps get screwed.

a 'bt' in gdb makekeys makekeys.core tells me:
#0  0xbdb515f7 in kill () from /usr/lib/libc.so.12
#1  0xbdbe9871 in pthread__assertfunc () from /usr/lib/libpthread.so.0

Any suggestions? I am now faced with an unusable X installation due to this.
It seems to work for other people, so maybe I need to update current again,
even though I did so approx. 4 hours (thats roughly the time needed to build
a kernel and userland and install them on this machine) before I built and
installed the new X. Was there some pthread bugfix I missed?

sources were current as of about 8 PM EST or so yesterday.
