any idea what might be causing this?
How did you perform the downgrade? The strace error looks like you're still running the 5.3-STABLE binary.
first i ran RELENG_5 and when i got the 5.4-PRERELEASE (which
incompatible with cPanel.net software) i had to run cvsup with RELENG_5_3
after than i started getting those errors
You're leaving out important details, like what you did after you cvsup'd.
the usual ,cvsup'ed then cd /usr/src && make buildworld && make installworld && cd /sys/i386/conf && config mykernel && cd ../compile/mykernel && make depend && make && make install && reboot
This is the usual? You should read http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html#AEN27432 and /usr/src/UPDATING.
The Canonical Way to Update Your System (for 5.x): 1) make buildworld 2) make buildkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE 3) make installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE 4) <reboot in single user> 5) /etc/rc.d/preseedrandom 6) mergemaster -p 7) make installworld 8) mergemaster 9) <reboot>
