This modification appears broken.  There's no way to find the path.
The code is:

if [ "X${PARAMFILE}" != "X" ]; then
	RELDATE=$(awk '/__FreeBSD_version.*propagated to newvers/ {print $3}' \
		${PARAMFILE})
else
	RELDATE=$(awk '/__FreeBSD_version.*propagated to newvers/ {print $3}' \
		$(dirname $0)/../sys/param.h)
fi

Unfortunately, it's called right at the beginning of a 'make world'
with:

. /T/src/FREEBIE/src/include/../sys/conf/newvers.sh; echo "$COPYRIGHT" > osreldate.h;
awk: cmd. line:2: fatal: cannot open file `/bin/../sys/param.h' for reading (No such file or directory)
*** Error code 2

This can't work because . doesn't set $*.
