[Fwd: How To Recover From Missing /lib/libc.so.7?]

I was running FreeBSD8.0-BETA2 amd64 and attempted to upgrade with
current sources as of yesterday (8/6/09). I successfully built world and
kernel, and installed the kernel. However when I attempted to install
world, I got this error:

===> lib/libc (install)
install -C -o root -g wheel -m 444   libc.a /usr/lib
install -C -o root -g wheel -m 444   libc_p.a /usr/lib
install -s -o root -g wheel -m 444   -fschg -S  libc.so.7 /lib
install: /lib/libc.so.7: chflags: Invalid argument
*** Error code 71

Stop in /usr/src/lib/libc.
*** Error code 1


And now I can't do anything as every command fails with:

/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libc.so.7" not found

How can I recover from this error?

Thanks,

Drew
