Hi Glen,

With the recent commit mentioned previously, only the first kernel listed
in KERNCONF is installed unless make.conf contains the following line:
NO_INSTALLEXTRAKERNELS=no

This affects both source-based upgrades (make installkernel) and package
building (make packages).

Is this the desired behaviour?

Regards,
Ben
