There are three other problems with making in /usr/distrib
under i386 ELF -current.  I guess nobody's been doing ELF
snapshots lately. -:)

 1. multiple references in -static compile of libhack.o in utils/libhack
 2. when making in .../floppies/ramdisk, the floppy3 fills,
     at least when the hack for the first multiple definition problem
     someone proposed got tried out (comment out yplib.o here and there)
    toying with this also exposed an itrunc3 panic in a chain
        of ffs_truncate <- ffs_write <- vn_write <- .. sys_srite <- syscall
        if there are not enough vnodes in /mnt in the MAKEDEV phase
        (itrunc3 panic lives in /sys/ufs/ffs/ffs_inode.c)
 3. when /etc/malloc.conf points to something with "A" in it,
    crunchide fails:

        crunchide -k _crunched_bad144_stub bad144.cro
        crunchide in free(): error: page is already free.
        *** Signal 6

I don't suppose someone _has_ a recent -current release(7) format
hierarchy, and the associated boot filesystems, somewhere online?
