Indeed everything is working fine, the problem was that my system was
out-of-sync with the source. I took src/release/picobsd/build/picobsd
from RELENG_6 and also commented out the sshd line from bridge/crunch.conf.

Could you commit PicoBSD build script to RELENG_4?
(I used RELENG_4_10 sources, but there is not much difference from
RELENG_4)

Thanks for your help
