I built FreeBSD 12-stable and current five months ago, and they have been sitting rather idle because of no internet access with current, and possible but very awkward with 12-stable.

Only good thing I got was efibootmgr.

I assume these changes are only for FreeBSD-current now and have to be tested and proven before committing to releng 12.

But I am working on other things now on the computer and will not be able to get to FreeBSD-current immediately.
