  what calls my attention that all this MBs do not have the memroy hole 
  remapping feature so the complete 4gigs are available what normally was not 
  the case with amd64 Mbs for the Athlon 64 CPUs
  
  some has an opinion if this is a freebsd issue or MB falure or scsi drv 
  problem?
  

  It's a driver problem.  If you want to use SCSI then you'll have to limit
  memory to 3.5 GB.

Is this specific to the Adaptec driver or all of them are affected by
the bug? I am considering upgrading to such a config, but with a
tekram controller (sym).

  This seems to work fine here:
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr] $ uname -rm
  6.1-RELEASE i386
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr] $ tar --version
  bsdtar 1.02.023, libarchive 1.02.026
  Copyright (C) 2003-2005 Tim Kientzle
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr] $ tar cf /dev/null X11R6
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr] $

Sure, but the directories are not the same. I have narrowed the
problem to a specific subdirectory and I think I have the explanation:

-rw-r--r--  1 jmz  jmz4312 Apr 16  1947 supclkrd.prg

Don't ask me why the date is wrong, this is really old stuff :-)

On the other hand tar has no problem extracting it. If someone wants
to debug it, the archive is available as
http://people.freebsd.org/~jmz/a.tar

  Hi,
  
  All my RC buildworlds have been successfull but now that 4.3 is tagged
  buildworld fails :-/

  Are you building RELENG_4 or RELENG_4_3_0_RELEASE?  There were module
  commits after the code thaw, which weren't part of 4.3-RELEASE.

RELENG_4. I just did cvs update -P on a RELENG_4 tree. I could not
imagine RELENG_4 broken a few minutes after the release :)
