--- Comment #47 from Warner Losh <imp@FreeBSD.org> ---
Each one of these is likely a silent crash. Likely caused by the boot loader
getting too big for the specific machine in question, but maybe some other
regression that's not hitting other machines. I suspect that these will nev=
er
be fixed since the common solution is "upgrade to UEFI". If you want / need=
 it
fixed, though, your best bet is to bisect the boot loader from "last known
working one" to the first commit that breaks it. That will suggest what to =
put
in by way of debugging.

It's something that can be done asynchronously to developer involvement. And
will narrow things so we can figure it out.

Tracing it to a release isn't helpful enough. There's too many commits betw=
een
working and not working to help.

Since these messages are from /boot/loader, recovery isn't terrible.
