Hi!
The drm-fbsd12.0-kmod issue is unfortunate, but it is a known issue.  Ranting
about it does not help much, what helps is supporting development.

That said, it looks like something else is hosed on your system apart from the
issue with drm-fbsd12.0-kmod.  I have had no problem upgrading both test and
production systems to 12.2 (I have compiled drm-fbsd12.0-kmod locally though),
and an issue with ld-elf.so.1 would have been all over the mailing lists.  I
also don't think that downgrading a system with freebsd-update is supported. 
Using ZFS snapshots and rolling back those works though (as long as you don't
do zpool upgrade), or using boot environments.

The coredump from conftest is usually autotools (configure scripts) that does
things to detect the system, so that should be quite alright, and even expected
if you are building ports on the system.

ps not being POSIX is for historical reasons.  While it might be unfortunate,
it's just the way it is.
