I have problems in the past - on other platforms - where having
statically linked tools in /bin saved the day. [Fixing things that
some other SA's had no clue about as to what they were doing].

Since FreeBSD went to dynamically linked binaries, there is the
/rescue directory which contains static binaries of the programs you
would need to recover from a failure.

There really is nothing to indicated what 'bad' may be - other than
statically linking these.

I took the NO_SHARED out and the buildworld went just fine.

Is this a bug?  I would think if the variable is set and useable
things should work.

Seems to be a bug, as their appears to be missing libraries in the
NO_SHARED case.

Here is the tail end of the output of make buildworld as I mailed
it to me from the machine I was bringing up as we start to replace
all the 4.11 servers.

The verison is 6.2-STABLE with the tag in the cvsup set
as RELENG_6_2.  So this is exact with the release on Jan 19.

Do I need to send this to anyone to look at.  Any hints? Or should
I just 'fugidaboudid'

Not sure which library has the above function in them.

The following functions seem to be defined in libkvm.

These seem to come from curses, but are not in your libcurses library.
Is there another library these functions come from?
