freebsd-update claims a file was changed

[DA Forsyth]

Hiya

I have 2 almost identicle machines running a minimal install of 7.1 
(updated from 7.0 just a few weeks ago).

Todays freebsd-update worked just fine on one box, but on the other I 
get
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 5 mirrors found.
Fetching metadata signature for 7.1-RELEASE from 
update1.FreeBSD.org... done.
Fetching metadata index... done.
Inspecting system... done.
Preparing to download files...
File changed while FreeBSD Update running: /boot/kernel/kernel

repeat ad nauseum.   Google has been no help.  What to do?
