Problem with "chown"

I've found that I have two files on with same name
on several of my systems:


-r-xr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  9256 Feb  2 16:54 /usr/sbin/chown
MD5 (/usr/sbin/chown) = fce92081f7907b04f0063e2f17f7f4e6
 9256  Feb  2  16:54  /usr/sbin/chown
above seems to work as expected


-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  9193 May 23 06:02 /sbin/chown
MD5 (/sbin/chown) = bd76dbd35bd23c59dbf224c831387a86
 9193  May 23  06:02  /sbin/chown
this gives an error
/sbin/chown: Undefined PLT symbol "_libc_init" (symnum =17)


I've not yet tracked down where the broken version
comes from, cdrom or build from source or other.


Anyone else seen this?

Yes, when kernel and userland got out of sync. I had to reinstall.

I can't remember if it was when I went from 5 -> 6beta2 or when I went
from 6beta2 back to 5.
