YES :-(

First, I wasn't aware of the fact since it hasn't been mentioned in UPDATIN=
G, secondly,
after I've read it many times, I realised too late that I had COMPAT_FREEBS=
D10 instead of
COMPAT_FREEBSD11 defined ... after a very stressful day mistake after mista=
ke ...

Now, after recompiling a proper kernel, on working systems which do have th=
e "old" world
but the "new" kernel the SIGSYS for /bin/sh vanished and the procedure of u=
pdating went
as expected.

On boxes, where I had a terrible mixture of both world and no proper kernel=
, I recompiled
the kernel stuff on a working and compatible system and copied /boot/kernel=
 to the
wrecked system and proceeded as recommended. That made things working again.
