>Description:

	Some manual pages in -current need to be changed which refer to 
	the /kernel file patch.  FreeBSD-CURRENT man pages have to make
	use of /boot/kernel/kernel and not /kernel.  I am attaching a
	patch for a taster.  If this patch is agreed upon, then I can
	submit more patches for the same change, which has to be made to
	say.. a _lot_ of (not) utilities not limited to:
	
		o iostat(8)
		o pstat(8)
		o getextattr(8)
	
	
	I am attaching a patch which will change the path in the kgmon(8)
	manual page.  If more are needed for other man pages as described
	above, please submit a followup to this list, and I will make the
	patches personally and submit them as a followup to this PR.

	Thanks,
	Regards,

	P.S. : I have submitted this PR under the update class as this is not
	a bug under -STABLE, which refers to /kernel AFAIK.
	
>How-To-Repeat:
	Look at the kgmon(8) manual page (in -CURRENT) as a sampler.
