Using old binaries to copy the new ker= nel to /n/9fat and rebooting means now you're running the bell labs kernel. I= don't know how different the two kernels are but if you want to continue ru= nning 9atom everything, you may have to undo nsec related changes in the use= rland. More generally, as this nsec change demonstrates, if you rely on sources ove= r which you have no control & you also have local changes, you pretty much h= ave to treat the external sources as a "vendor branch" and do a careful merg= e to avoid such surprises.=
