Since it's a gnu app, --version works also.

Thanks for the clarification, I expected it to print a version string
(because I was only interested in seeing that it does not die after the
pmap fix) but had to find out from the man page, that nm(1) uses -V for
that, while all other members of the binutils family opt for -v. Oh
well... Consistency in software design rocks.

So, problem solved.

Thanks to all who responded.

I think it may be related..

I saw this when I was sufferning from the other problemm
make sure you have the pmap fix and then re  make buildworld/make
installworld  when running on a new kernel and see if it goes away.

szia!

If no file is specified for nm to operate on it operates on a.out by default
like most other programs that deal with binaries.

If a.out does not exist, then you will indeed see that.

I have a userland from a week and a half ago (or so? :-/) with last
night's kernel (with the pmap.c fix) and do not experience this issue.

Which exposes another interesting problem.

If I issue 'nm -v', it says:

/usr/libexec/elf/nm: a.out: No such file or directory

This system was last upgraded tonight, so has code from around 26th in
the userland. Kernel has been upgraded to code from this evening.

Does anybody else see this?
