This is (naturally) most likely self inflicted when I did the etcupdate:

How did you update your base system?  It sounds like you improperly
installed an unprivileged build.

The system is expendable so I can start over - I was just hoping to avoid
it. I have some decent notes of what I did if you don't mind pointing out
where I failed:
[...]
#  ./build.sh -O ../obj -T ../tools -U install=/

Are you 100% positive you didn't forget -U at that step?  What does
"ls -l /usr/bin/su" say, for instance?

100 is a though number to beat - but as far as I at least remember I pasted that line from my notes into the shell.

ls looks right to me except it isn't able to map uid 0?

# ls -l /usr/bin/su
-r-sr-xr-x  1 0  wheel  18971 Oct 28 01:48 /usr/bin/su
