I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction.

I just upgraded my system to -current earlier today (thanks to all who
helped!), and now postfix seems to be broken.

Poostfix starts up without any problems:

Mar 10 20:19:57 sorrow spamd[166]: server started on port 783 (running version 2.44)
Mar 10 20:19:57 sorrow postfix/postfix-script: starting the Postfix mail system
Mar 10 20:19:58 sorrow postfix/master[254]: daemon started -- version 2.0.6
Mar 10 15:30:20 sorrow spamd[164]: server started on port 783 (running version 2.44)
Mar 10 15:30:21 sorrow postfix/postfix-script: starting the Postfix mail system
Mar 10 15:30:21 sorrow postfix/master[252]: daemon started -- version 2.0.6

(spamd is SpamAssassin, which I installed and got working before upgrading
to -current)

I run fetchmail in the background to poll my pop3 server every minute or
so.  It gets the mail and tries to drop it off with postfix...
Unfortunately, postfix isn't liking this:

Mar 10 20:33:08 sorrow postfix/smtpd[1585]: warning: connect #1 to subsystem /var/spool/postfix/private/proxymap: No such file or directory
Mar 10 20:33:18 sorrow postfix/smtpd[1585]: warning: connect #2 to subsystem /var/spool/postfix/private/proxymap: No such file or directory
Mar 10 20:33:28 sorrow postfix/smtpd[1585]: warning: connect #3 to subsystem /var/spool/postfix/private/proxymap: No such file or directory
Mar 10 20:33:38 sorrow postfix/smtpd[1585]: warning: connect #4 to subsystem /var/spool/postfix/private/proxymap: No such file or directory

And, of course, /var/spool/postfix/private/proxymap does not exist...
There are number of other sockets in that directory, by no proxymap...

Now, I'm not too familiar with postfix.  Is it safe to just create that
socket?  If not, what do I need to do to get it working once again?

Also, I notice in the archives that someone recently posted about problems
they were having with the emuxki driver.  Just as an FYI, I'm having the
same problem...  /dev/audio just stopped responding, giving a "resource
temporarily unavailable" message.  Rebooting was the only way I got it to
work.

I decided to try with a yds card, and I couldn't even get it to boot all
the way up.  The kernel just *stopped* when it got to the midi port on
yds0.
