In -CURRENT, we install .symbols files if debugging was asked for.

In -CURRENT, kldxref(8) skips *.symbols files.

We do not bootstrap kldxref(8) when upgrading (I never suceeded
doing it a cross-tool).

So when upgrading from 6.x to 7.0 you see the warning like this,
the first time you install your new kernel with an old kldxref.

It's harmless.
