Dear freebsd friends,

after installing 2.1.0-RELEASE and wanting to use kernel PPP, I have 
tried to compile the kernel source. Unfortunately the build flakes out 
when attempting to use libkern.a ...
Running ranlib libkern.a will give "Inappropriate file type or format" 
and my kernel build ends at

loading kernel
ld: libkern.a(): bad magic
*** Error code 1

Anyone any smart ideas ?

Nick
