I've looking through mailing list archives and searched the 'net and
haven't found anything saying vfs.root.mountfrom is deprecated.
loader(8) mentions that it will fallback to using "currdev" if there's
no root entry in /etc/fstab and vfs.root.mountfrom isn't set.

At the very least, it's an undocumented incompatibility between beadm
and bectl: I can't take an existing system that's using beadm and just
switch to using bectl.
