  Log:
  Using "KERNEL" for buildkernel was a very very bad mistake.  $KERNEL is
  already used by the kernel makefiles themselves, and this leads to a lot
  of trouble when people put "KERNEL=MYKERNEL" in make.conf.  Bite the bullet
  and change it to KERNCONF instead, before it gets too far entrenched.
  
  The kernel Makefiles use ${KERNEL} as the name of what to install the
  kernel as, eg: /boot/${KERNEL}/kernel or /${KERNEL}.  This leads to much
  unhappiness with things like /LOCAL instead of /kernel.  buildkernel is
  severely limited as it is only useful directly after a buildworld.
