Check if your /dev/null has been replaced by some stupid `real' file.  
The `nlist failed' problem bit me several weeks ago on two machines (one
running 4-stable and the other running -current) and it turned out to be
a /dev/null problem.  You may want to remove /dev/null maually and do a
`sh MAKEDEV std' to alleviate this problem.

I don't have the vaguest idea how this happened, though.

Hope this helped,
Eugene
