a belated link to this bug 251866, or, at least, an outline of the loader.e=

issue. Keyword:=20

* needs patch


(In reply to Warner Losh from comment #36)

I hesitate before closing this report only because of the regression keywor=
d.

Given:=20

a) 13.0-RELEASE <https://www.freebsd.org/releases/13.0R/>; announced=20
   more than two years ago

b) 12.4-RELEASE no longer recommended for new deployments

c) stable/12 reaching end of life in less than three months

d) the available resolution for users of supported versions of FreeBSD 12.=
=E2=8B=AF
   (upgrade to VMware vSphere ESXi 8.0 or greater)

=E2=80=93 I do think that documentation and then closure will be reasonable.
