--- Comment #1 from jnn at synfin.org ---
Ok this is all fixed!  I don't think its a real bug at all, apologies. The
issue was I had the following entry in /etc/sysctl.conf -

compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.18

I changed it to 2.6.32 with sysctl compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.32, reinstalled
latest linux_base-c7, and now everything works! 

I don't know where the old entry in /etc/sysctl.conf came from (I don't
remember making it, but I suppose it's possible I did at some point a long time
ago). This particular machine started out at FreeBSD 10.1 a good while back and
I have done updates first to 10.3 (long time ago) and 10.4 (a few days ago).

In any case, it is all working.  Thanks!
