I got into this issue on one box freshly installed from oct-18 snapshot
and then upgraded to oct-20 RELENG_7 via cvsup. It didn't happen on four
others already running various (week to month old) versions of 7-CURRENT
- all of them upgraded to RELENG_7 on oct-20 without any problem.

If you didn't remove your /usr/obj/ yet, you can easilly fix
installworld by copying and replacing the broken userland tools
manually, e.g.
`cp -f /usr/obj/usr/src/usr.bin/date /usr/bin/`, etc.

You will need to copy at least these:
/bin/sh
/usr/bin/make
/usr/bin/awk
/usr/sbin/mtree
/usr/sbin/zic
/lib/libedit.so.6
/lib/libncurses.so.7

as described in:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2007-October/078196.html

But I remember there were a few more of them, "find" being the one you
will need, as it is used to check for audit group. Just copy a first
batch of them, run installworld, look for what else is broken, copy it
over from /usr/obj/, run installworld again, etc. It will take a few
minutes, but it will work.
