Thanks, but I am running 9.3-RELEASE-p10 w/ GENERIC kernels, not
recompiling. The question has pretty much been answered, & upon further
review I think I remember this happening in the past when I did a
freebsd-update & the kernel didn't get upgraded, only other binaries, so
I think all is well here. Thanks again.
