            I was previously running 4.9-PRERELEASE. I used cvsup to download
    new source code and compile the OS, as I've done many times over the years
    that I've used FreeBSD. Now, uname -a will show me 4.9-PRERELEASE and Aug
    26, 2003 instead of 4.9-RELEASE or 4.9-STABLE and any of the December
    dates that I've attempted to compile a new kernel.

            I've tried mv /usr/src /usr/src.old and a new cvsup. I've tried
    rm -rf /usr/obj/* (after the chflags command) and that didn't help. I've
    even tried using /stand/sysinstall to install a new bin and crypto binary
    set, then recompile the kernel. Still no luck.

            Does anyone have any idea what is going on?

                                                            Thanks in advance,
                                                            Jaime
