That looks good. Thanks for writing it up. I'm not sure how precise you want
to be but here's a slight change to include -CURRENT upgrades.

	During a source upgrade of a 4-STABLE (or -CURRENT prior to 20010910)
	machine to -CURRENT, the installkernel step will attempt to execute a
	non-existent kldxref executable.  (kldxref exists in -CURRENT as of
	20010910, but not in 4-STABLE.) This error is non-fatal and can be
	ignored.
