This is just another followup on what I have found.  I just tried the
latest snapshot (r325156) and it will not boot.  It shows exactly the
same symptoms as my upgrade attempt.  It loads the kernel, then reports
that init has died, and then drups into ddb.  I will start a new thread
about that problem.
