Hi,

That worked.  Thanks!
I'm not sure what would have caused this problem.  This is a relatively new
machine which I set up last week,
and installed a bunch of packages via "pkg install".

The only thing I did different today was that I built and installed a few
packages via ports under /usr/ports (updated with portsnap).
