freebsd stable - May 2005 - folding client stopped working, is it because of linux?

I did a system update and after that my folding @ home client will not 
work without me doing make install in linux_base-8 ports dir.  BTW, 
linux is already installed from before the update and even after 
reinstalling after the update the systems seems to forget it is there 
after a reboot.  I can type make install and the port installs, but 
since I don't do a make clean first it returns immediatily.  After I do 
this f@h runs fine.  My network card uses the nvnet driver from ports 
which still works at boot with out me needing to make install for the 
linux port.  I believe this driver requires the linux emulation to work btw.

Any ideas as to why this might be?  A corupt makefile in my ports 
folder?  A change to the linux emulation?

Run "kldstat" after the reboot and look out for linux.ko. If it
isn't
there, you haven't added the linux kernel module to the kernel (either
in the kernel-config or as a module in /boot/loader.conf).

It doesn't depend upon the linuxolator.
