kgzip(1) is broken

[dteske at freebsd.org]

Hello,

I have been sad of-late because kgzip(1) no longer produces a usable kernel.

All versions of 9.x suffer this.

And somewhere between 8.3-RELEASE-p1 and 8.3-RELEASE-p5 this recently broke in
the 8.x series.

I haven't tried the 7 series lately, but if whatever is making the rounds gets
MFC'd that far back, I expect the problem to percolate there too.

The symptom is that the machine reboots immediately and unexpectedly the moment
the kernel is executed by the loader.

This is quite troubling and I am looking for someone to help find the culprit. I
don't know where to start looking.
