OK; today's CURRENT buildworld (& friends) completed successfully --
while I was using the wi0 NIC:

g1-18(7.0-C)[1] uname -a
FreeBSD g1-18.catwhisker.org. 7.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT #265: Tue Dec 12 09:12:51 PST 2006     root_at_g1-18.catwhisker.org.:/common/S4/obj/usr/src/sys/LAPTOP_30W  i386
g1-18(7.0-C)[2] 

So -- no magic smoke leakage; no reports of LORs.  Looks good.

Thanks again, especially to Sam & Robert.

Peace,
david
