Ok, now this is really wierd...  On my system that I just upgraded on
Sunday, I don't have a problem... I end up with:
-bash-2.05b$ sysctl kern.bootfile kern.module_path
kern.bootfile: /boot/kernel/kernel
kern.module_path: /boot/kernel;/boot/modules

and this is with:
-bash-2.05b$ ident support.4th defaults/loader.conf 
support.4th:
     $FreeBSD: src/sys/boot/forth/support.4th,v 1.15 2002/05/24 02:28:58 gordon Exp $

defaults/loader.conf:
     $FreeBSD: src/sys/boot/forth/loader.conf,v 1.85 2004/08/06 15:06:06 jmg Exp $

could you also send me your loader.conf and device.hints along with
the output of ident as shown above?

Thanks.
