imp@ alluded to that in the revision (https://reviews.freebsd.org/D50124) so, back then, I checked in-tree but could not find any hint anywhere (code, kernel configs) that PAGE_SIZE would actually be set to 16k in public configs, hence the commit message (with "unchanged for all architectures", I meant in fact unchanged for the official artifacts we build).

I see some support for PAGE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE_4K.  For such experiments, this commit should certainly help.
