The build should finish with:

Three line uo from the bottom is the location of the built kernel
(to cut/paste out).

That is just a comment, ie 'install' is being done in sys/ufs/ufs.
If there is nothing to install there is no further output.
Basically it stops the system looking stuffed while it trundles through
a lot of doing nothing.  Also helps identify where it has exploded.
