Guys,

I have upgraded two of my backroom munchkins to FreeBSD 6.0 with 
conflicting results. As part of this process I replaced the hard disks 
with larger ones. Munchkin howland works just fine, even if it has 
tummyaches about ssh. I built and installed latest NTP with no problems. 
Munchkin mort has some interesting differences. First, ntpq from 
shrinkwrap comes up wanting libreadline.so.5 and fails. Installing 
latest NTP fixes that. Second, tickadj comes up wanting libmd.so.2 and 
fails. I have no workaround for that. Third, the kernel frequency is off 
by 0.5 s per 64-s poll interval (!). The tickadj on howland does display 
the expected results, but changing the tick value has no effect. For 
somebody installing the default version, this would be a clear violation 
of the Principle of Least Astonishment.

Earlier, Harlan upgraded munchkins beauregard and mort to 5.4 with no 
problems, although ssh did have some wrinkles. However, there was a 
monstrous /usr/local which represented overrides of the stock 
components, including /libexec/ld-elf.so.1. I attempted to upgrade that 
and got a flash that lit up the entire neighborhood and I had to repair 
from CD. Tells you how little I know.

Dave
