I get basically the same error, but with '-B' inserted:
krtld: failed to open '-B'
krtld: bind_primary(): no relocation information found for module -B
krtld: error during initial load/link phase
krtld could neither locate nor resolve symbols for:
-B
in the boot archive. Please verify that this file matches what is found in
the boot archive.
...
Press any key to reboot.
