 Ouch!  Looks like it's dying somewhere in the code which copies
 userconfig changes from the boot kernel to the installed kernel.
 
 This may prove "interesting" to debug (I'll try your exact set of -c
 changes for now) so I may end up just adding an option for turning
 this behavior off (on by default) if I can't fix it.  Needless to say,
 this doesn't happen on any of my test machines (I have to tweak ed0 on
 most of my test boxes, in fac) and may be difficult to reproduce.
 
 Also strange that no one else has reported this!  Hmmmm.
