The developers are in the middle of a hardware hackathon.  Things can
break...and get fixed and break again and get fixed again very quickly.

Obviously, that's "broke".  :)
However, it's pretty blatant, so I suspect it is probably fixed by
now, but snapshot builds are a bit irregular during hackathons.

Suggestions:
1) Wait a few days for a new snap.
2) If you have another Sun machine, build yourself a release on that
machine and try that release on your T1000.  (If this does not work,
then definitely file a bug report!)

Installing from a 4.4-rel bsd.rd under these circumstances is entirely
acceptable under these conditions (though you may find the snapshot
kernel has the same problem...or may not).
