Updated to a slightly-less-than-full GENERIC.  Still dumped core.  Moved loader.conf out of
the way, works fine.  What will take some time now is moving loader.conf back piece by piece
[until/if there is/ever was a utility to do it for us... ] to find the problematic line or two, then
resume testing of the install of the custom kernel that also is 'fail' status at this point... unless/until
I decide to also test it, THEN resume the loader.conf line-by-line back in...

tl;dr   loader.conf problematic line and maybe an additional unknown in either kernel text file.
