Problems with linux_base-8 on todays STABLE

I've just updated to todays stable, and I'm having a problem with linux_base-8.

#  uname -a
FreeBSD catbert.rotfl.com.au 4.10-STABLE FreeBSD 4.10-STABLE #17: Sun Jun  6 
10:00:35 CST 2004 
root at catbert.rotfl.com.au:/var/obj/array0/ftp/pub/FreeBSD/branches/4.0-stable/src/sys/CATBERT 
  i386


I've removed the linux_base-8 port and reinstalled it, just in case there was 
some sort of strange interaction, but I get this:

[WIZ:/] /compat/linux/bin/sh
sh-2.05b# ls -al
sh-2.05b# ls
COPYRIGHT     array0  boot  cdrom   dev   etc     floppy  kernel 
kernel.old  mnt      modules.old  proc  root  stand  tftpboot  usr
XFree86.core  bin     cdr   compat  dist  export  home    kernel.GENERIC 
ls.core     modules  opt          pub   sbin  sys    tmp       var
sh-2.05b#

Note that ls -al returned nothing, and actually dropped a core file (ls.core). 
  ls without arguments works.

Also...

/compat/linux/bin/sh
sh-2.05b# rpm -qa
sh-2.05b#

But from the normal FreeBSD shell:

# ls -l /compat/linux/var/lib/rpm/
total 1952

-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel    32768  6 Jun 11:32 triggerindex.rpm


Something is clearly crapping out, but I don't even know where to begin looking.


Any help would be appreciated.


Thanks,
Phil.
