If you add
makeoptions KERNEL=kernel #Build kernel "foo" and install "/foo"
to your kernel config file it will install it as /kernel without this
change; and back up your old one as /kernel.old. I would expect this
line in the config file will be harmless (albeit redundant) when the
change is MFC'd so you won't have to edit /boot/loader.conf.
