I just ran a 'cvs update' and attempted to build a GENERIC kernel:

cc -O2 -g -O2 -Werror -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Wno-main -Wno-uninitialized -Wa,-Av9a -mno-fpu -I. -I../../../../arch -I../../../.. -nostdinc -DSUN4U -DLKM -D_LP64 -DMAXUSERS=64 -D_KERNEL -D_KERNEL_OPT -Dsparc64   -c vers.c
rm -f netbsd
ld -Ttext 01000000 -Tdata 01800000 -e start -n -T ../../../../arch/sparc64/conf/kern.ldscript -X -o netbsd ${SYSTEM_OBJ} vers.o
uvm_pdaemon.o: could not read symbols: Bad address
*** Error code 1

Stop.

Same happened with isp_pci.o, if_de.o. after rebuilding them, the
kernel linked fine, but ...

'no /dev/console' is a sign of bigger problems I think, since I can
boot my existing Sep 16 kernel no problem..

compiler bugs, maybe?
