FYI:
According to ports/100703 and ports/115517, the macro INSTALL_PROGRAM
corrupts .ko files on AMD64 machines:
You cannot strip kernel modules on amd64, because modules are
elf object files, as opposed to shared objects on all other
archs. Strip strips the object file symbol table, that is used
by the static linker and in-kernel linker on amd64. On the other
hand, shared object contains also a dynamic symbol table, that
is not stripped and used by in-kernel linker on !amd64.
To overcome this problem I have submitted ports/116200 which adds
the INSTALL_KLD command which can be used to properly install .ko
files without the fear of them being stripped.
