Heh.  So that's why I was up all night.  Oh, well.  At least it's good
to know that I didn't screw up.

If anyone can get it.  I found that both ftp and ftpd failed.

I found that deleting libc.so.12.29 caused it to use libc.so.12.28 (with
an annoying warning) which allowed me to build the new kernel and install
it.  I guess it would also allow ftp to work.
