    This is probably where you went wrong. By not using buildkernel it may
    have still compiled against the -PRERELEASE headers.

    I'm not sure how to fix you at this point ... If cpanel has hardcoded
    assumptions about the release name you may need to fake it out by hacking
    src/sys/conf/newvers.sh to rename it back to "5.3-STABLE" and then be
    caereful to repply the fix after every cvsup. However I'm not sure how to
    get your world back to a functional state without reinstalling...

    You should also file a bug with the cpanel folks and have them handle the
    name changes more gracefully.
