Nope.  Otherwise your normal kernel would be installed as
/boot/FOOBAR/kernel rather than /boot/kernel/kernel.  One would use the

    KERNEL_KO?=	kernel
    KERNEL?=	kernel
    KODIR?=		/boot/${KERNEL}
    KCOREDIR?=	${KODIR}

directives to get what they desire.  If the "I want my kernel as /kernel"
people test out the diff I posted a few weeks ago, there will be even
more knobs to turn.
