    Sheesh. Not this *again*. This is a false alarm: chkrootkit is
    exceedingly sensitive to something about the way such programs work
    under FreeBSD and has to be continually futzed so that it knows not to
    complain on each successive version of FreeBSD. Comes up in this or
    other FreeBSD lists just about every week.

    Relax. You're not compromised. You just need better tools.
