I reinstalled the kernel source.  I removed
/sys/arch/amiga/compile/LUVTHANG-NetBSD-1.3.  In /sys/arch/amiga/conf, I
typed 'config LUVTHANG-NetBSD-1.3'.  In
/sys/arch/amiga/compile/LUVTHANG-NetBSD-1.3, I typed 'make links', 'make
depend', and 'make all'.

'make links' terminated with a complaint: swapnetbsd.o: not found

'make all' terminated with nm's complaints about "No such file or
directory" for lots of .o files it should have been able to find in
libkern.

I noticed a lib directory in /sys/arch/amiga/compile/LUVTHANG-NetBSD-1.3.
It has two empty subdirectories, compat and kern.  Is that normal?

Does anyone else have an explanation and a solution to my problem?
