That's good - it seems to have changed in this
respect recently.

Is the new kernel that is build installed as /kernel or
/XXX where XXX is the kernel name?  I hope it is the
former.  Otherwise the docs need to be changed - say put
in the kernel config
makeoptions     KERNEL=kernel

In any case, whatever works needs to be properly documented in the
handbook before release 4.1 goes out.
