Kernel Build Issues with latest cvsup of both a 7.2 system, and a 6.4 system..

 Not sure if I am just having a run of bad luck here, but I have a bunch of
various free BSD boxen on both 6.4-STABLE, and on 7.2-STABLE.   I try and
make it a point to do a cvsup and update the machines every month or so to
keep things current and any updates/patches installed.   I decided a couple
days ago, it was again time to do this again.

 

 So I ran cvsup on the machines, and set out to rebuild, first doing a 'make
buildworld', then a 'make installworld', and finally a 'mergemaster' on the
servers.  That all went well, then time for a kernel update, so I performed
a 'make buildkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC' to create the new kernel, which is
where things went bad.

 

 

On my 6.4-STABLE x86 machine, I received the following:

 

cc -c -O -pipe -march=pentium4 -Wall -Wredundant-decls -Wnested-externs
-Wstrict-prototypes  -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Winline

On my 7.2-STABLE amd64 machine, I received the following:

I have rebuilt the above servers many times over, and I must say it's worked
great, so was really thrown that not only one version on a server would blow
up, but two different versions of the OS would pop at the same moment.
Needless to say I haven't tried to rebuild any of my other 6.4 or 7.2 boxen
yet, as I want to get the above two attempts sorted out first.

 

Has something changed I am forgetting to do that is not biting me in the
backside, or has some bug been introduced I am now aware of currently
causing issues??  If anyone can help sort this out, or if you need
additional info, please let me know..
