A RELENG_8 system built this morning still identifies itself as
8.3-PRERELEASE.
Any chance of this becoming 8.3-STABLE soon? While this is entirely
cosmetic, it does cause me issues at $JOB.

I concur that the 235 MB size of an amd64 8.0 kernel is a bit of a

Sorry, I've got VMw
TP on the guest, and set VMware tools to syncronise
clocks. This is adequate for many. For my systems, I need better
time keeping to distinguish cause from effect in problems involving
interacting applications on multiple machines.

All of the following help to keep the problem away:

Inserting 60 second delays at various points.
Disabling SMP.
