	This is another FWIW, next time this happens to anyone else.
	My bad-memory problems were kindly fixed by a gentleman from
	the Seattle BSD users group, but there were scores of files
	missing (vanished) all over.  Several missing binaries caused
	the /usr/src/Makefile to go haywire, so I had to build/install
	the kernel the old way:

  # cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf
  # [[ perform necessary kernel configuration on ``./KERNCONF'' ]]
  # config KERNCONF 
  # cd ../../compile/KERNCONF
  # make depend
  # make
  # make install

	After going single-user, and mergmastering stuff, 
	make installworld was broke, so I had to install several
	src trees by hand.  At last make installworld worked and
	I came back up.   There are probably lots of ports 
	gone-south, but this is almost a non issue after the past
	few weeks.
