Yes, I ran into that.  Usually, whenever csup-ing source, I copy GENERIC
to GENERIC.bak just before csup, then compare afterwards to see if there
are any major differences.  Of course, there haven't been for awhile, so
last night I didn't.  However, I still had my old GENERIC.bak and
running a quick diff showed me the problem. 

There's another new line under the GEOM_PART_GPT that I also put in my
custom kernel, GEOM_LABEL.  I threw that in as well. <shrug>.

Warner, if you see this, is it worth a mention in UPDATING?  It will
affect anyone who has a custom kernel.


(Yeah, I know I should do a PR, but my wife is telling me it's time to
go.)
