An update committed since Friday appears to have broken mii/nsgphy.c

Having run cvsup just a few minutes ago and then having tried again to
build a kernel, I see that the errors persist. Is this something that
someone
is already fixing? Or should I try to submit a PR?
You don't mention which branch you're on, but it sounds like it's
Oops. It's 7.2-STABLE.
probably a local issue for your installation. I built and installed
from the latest RELENG_7 today, and there are new bug reports on
RELENG_8 since Friday. Those failing identifiers *are* present in the
correct sources; it looks like your miidevs.h isn't being regenerated
properly. You *are* remembering to do a buildworld before a
buildkernel, right?
Actually, I did. However, your note jogged a memory, so I went back to
the handbook and discovered that something I was doing was non-standard and
would have had the same effect. It's how I've always done it, so it's rather
remarkable that it hasn't burned me before this. So I tried doing it the
right way, and that quickly caused the file system to overflow. :-( I moved
the file system to a larger partition, tried it again, and it worked just fine.
Thanks very much for your note, which provided the clue that led me to
my error.
