Yes, please, why is this beeing changed, do I need to revise my .sh that
was hunting for the old string to use what now?  Or do I need to now
override this in my KERNCONF files?

I think changing this in stable/12 is a POLA issue.

Why is 11 being treated special, or is it that it does not implement
BOOT_TAG at all?

Does this deserve a RELNOTES Y, or UPDATING entry?
