Staying with -current that way hasn't given me any stress in the last year afaik. And even -current is somewhat forgiving if you don't update or mergemaster your rc files, devices and chroot sandboxes immediately. I understand you track -stable, I don't have experience with that, but try booting with the backed up kernel then making build and then compiling the kernel again and use that on next boot. -peter
