Any input to this issue is still appreciated, while...

...I could fix this one myself: service "fc-devices" (FibreChannel - I have no 
fibre channel at all...) needed to be enabled manually. No idea why it had been 
disabled.  Strange.

Before, I had to disable the ntp service, but at least it complained about 
missing /etc/inet/ntp.conf. Again, no idea why it has been enabled as ntp.conf 
does not exist on any of my boxes.

Nevertheless, I don't like the perspective of having to try for hours after 
each ungraceful shutdown (I am developing kernel modules...).
