Well, that is what you have to expect when running current. You are a
betatester, and you can't expect the authors to have access to every
combination of hardware. 

On the other hand, I have been cvsup'ing and making world every night for
the last 6 months or so, and besides having to do the changes in "heads
up"-messages, I haven't had any troubles. Right, make world do fail
sometimes, often because I have cvsup'ed during commits, but the system
has never been unbootable. 

I do this every night from cron

cd /usr/src
/usr/local/bin/cvsup -s -l /tmp/cvslock -L 2 -P - -h cvsup.dk.freebsd.org 
/root/ports-supfile|tee /dev/ttyv7|mail root
/usr/local/bin/cvsup -s -l /tmp/cvslock -L 2 -P - -h cvsup.dk.freebsd.org 
/root/standard-supfile|tee /dev/ttyv7|mail root
make -DNOGAMES world && cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf && config GINA && cd 
/usr/src/sys/compile/GINA && make depend && make && make install && echo reboot
