Since then I have not been able to reproduce it.  Maybe a timing thing.

No luck yet; I'll resubmit my request (possibly lost in the 3.2-BETA
traffic?) and let you know if I have any luck.

I'm using 4.0-CURRENT, and did a ./configure --enable-kld, but on the make
got:

ranlib librxkad.a
SUBDIRS='bsd';  for i in $SUBDIRS;  do (cd $i && make   all); done
awk '/^vop/ { printf("#define HAVE_%s 1\n", toupper($1)); }'
/sys/kern/vnode_if.

Presumably an lkmism, but unfortunately I don't have time just now to fix,
just to report :).  This was from: May 14 22:16 arla-tb.tar.gz.
