I am talking about head, which no longer installs/packages multiple kernels
by default.
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/Makefile.inc1?revision=299088&view=markup

Whilst the r299088 commit is referring to a stable POLA violation, the
commit itself is a change to head with a proposed MFC after 3 days. Its
interesting, because this has surprised me when testing PkgBase on head, as
the behaviour has changed from the initial announcement.
