First off, I'm not advocating commit wars by reverting this change.
What I think happened was a simple misunderstanding, assumptions were
made, and an accidental lapse in communication occurred. It happens..
let's just try not to make the same mistake twice and move on.

I'm not currently blocked by this change if I upgrade to a later
version pending that I unmerge this change via svn merge -c -226162.
That being said, not everyone uses svn to manage /usr/src though
(cv?sup comes to mind), so I think it would be smart to revert this
change primarily for those individuals so they don't have to grow a
new custom system for applying patches, similar to what the FreeNAS
build system's build/do_build.sh script does, and so we can have
greater test coverage with 10-CURRENT in the coming months until all
of the ports breakage from the double digit branding scheme is fully
resolved.

Thanks!
