  No way to be sure where you ended up, but it superficially looks like you've
done a kernel install without a world install.  I know you're an old hat at
this and you've got others at 63, so you're probably looking for some weird
fluke on that one box (I suspect).

  On the thing 15 has done is default to a "no clean" scenario, and there were
some "META" mode changes around early-August that might mean things are in
a slightly odd state.  I'd suggest you clean out your object files and
recompile everything (which I think REALLY hurts time-wise for your RPI2?).

  My META issues usually just resulted in compile errors that would go away
when I blew away the object tree.  I presume you're trying to do NO_CLEAN
builds just to speed things up on RPI and maybe some dependency isn't getting
evaluated right, or clock was iffy for some timestamp, or whatever.

  You look like you're running with WITHOUT_REPRODUCIBLE_BUILD set, but I've
also taken to nuking /usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/GENERIC/vers.[co] on
rebuild to make sure that current version strings land up in the binary.
