I double-checked the kernel config file I used that generated the odd
unbootable kernel, and found nothing unexpected. Running it through
/usr/sbin/config and making it a third time resulted in a usable kernel.
It's possible that something very strange happened, because I no longer
can repeat the problem (which only happened twice). So I concede it could
be one of the top two problems: operator error or hardware malfunction.
Yike on me. Bully for FreeBSD! If it happens again, I'll try it on a
different machine for verification before posting!
A bug in my MUA causes news.announce.newusers font
