Duh. I untarred my old copy of the -current source files into a new
/src tree and then supped the latest stuff and my problems with
lib/libc/strerror and lib/librpcsvc went away. Thanks Mike!
I haven't gotten to the others yet, but I suspect that they will go
away too.
I have not got a -current kernel too, but it "kinda" works. During
boot, when it is looking for the devices, the screen clears and
nothing gets displayed. I get the stuff from wdc0: and what I think is
the com: stuff flashes just before the screen clears. The system
continues to boot, and (I think) I can login and halt the machine. I
just can't see anything. Did I miss something with the new pccons
driver?
