It's probably the awk bug. You need to use /boot/loader.old to boot the
system, build and install a fresh awk (gnu awk), then build and install a
fresh loader.
You don't get bitten by this until the second upgrade after the bad awk
version was introduced, since the awk used to build the loader is the
system's native awk, not the awk in the build tree. This probably needs
to be changed so that awk is a buildtool, and one is built early to use
when building the loader.
