It's still strange because he was able to boot 4.11 which also
has the same old limit of four chunks ((10 - 2) / 2) of RAM,
he has three non-overlappping RAM chunks reported by SMAP, and
I fail to see how it ends up using five chunks.  Odd...

There's a problem with the PHYS_AVAIL_ARRAY_END in RELENG_4
(type mismatch):

vm_paddr_t phys_avail[10];

/* must be 2 less so 0 0 can signal end of chunks */
#define PHYS_AVAIL_ARRAY_END ((sizeof(phys_avail) / sizeof(vm_offset_t)) - =
2)

But it's only applicable to RELENG_4 and PAE.
