Oops!
Thanks!
Sorry to waste everyone's time, then.

The initial download and kernel-update to 15.0-RC2 went fine.
`freebsd-update` directed me to reboot and run `freebsd-update
install` to continue the upgrade. I did as directed, and then the
upgrade stopped. The entire screen was filled with multiple copies of
a message about `libsys.so.7` being missing. Every system binary was
unusable, each reporting the same message. However, the `/rescue`
binaries worked fine. It appears that `libc.so` depends upon
`libsys.so.7` now. I think the installer/updater may have replaced
`libc.so` in `/lib` before `libsys.so.7` could be installed.
You didn't follow the instructions to run 'freebsd-update fetch install'
before upgrading. This was fixed in FreeBSD-EN-25:18.freebsd-update (aka
in 14.3-p4).
