[Bug 279939] sysutils/pefs-kmod: causes panic when module is loaded

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=279939

--- Comment #7 from Daniel O'Connor <darius@dons.net.au> ---
I think kernel module packages are in a bit of an unfortunate position. The
kernel ABI is not regulated very well so there are incidental breakages all the
time.

I usually rebuild ports which install KLDs to avoid the issue - you can do
`make install FORCE_PKG_REGISTER=1` and it will overwrite the package with the
port built one without disturbing dependencies.

I am a bit surprised that it panics rather than just complaining about a
version mismatch, however as I said earlier there are often accidental
breakages.
