If I just use, com.apple.kernel.bsd or something it will load fine. Sadly I need to depend on the full com.apple.kernel to resolve nsysent it looks like.

What's the output when you run kextutil -nt?

I was trying out some kext dev on 10.6 and keep running into the following error:

I get this error for default empty kext projects as well as projects that work under 10.5.  Reproduced on a couple of 10.6 boxes.

Has anyone run into this yet?  I found the error message in OSKext.cpp, but didn't help with fixing the problem.
