Major mix-up (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

snafu

'major mix-up' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for snafu that I've seen before include "Slangy acronym meaning in total confusion" , "Customary confusion" , "a mess of things" , "mess as usual" , "chaos, as usual" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, the Newsday and The Wall Street Journal.
