No. I'm using svn://svn.freebsd.org/base/stable/8 . I'm just saying
that hopping from 8.0-RELEASE to 8-STABLE has potential issues that
need to be explored further ; I'll try to characterize the issue
better and submit a bug report if it's valid -- I just wanted to see
whether or not folks spotted the issue before in the past couple of
weeks.
