>Description:
pbsdboot.exe seems to be unable to load symbols.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
Unknown. As a workaround (and generally good idea) this patch trys
ksyms if no symbols are found so that dbsym can be used. Note that if
"load symbols" is enabled in pbsdboot then no symbols will be loaded but
ksyms will also not be used. It might be worth removing this option
until the loading problem is fixed.
