That in itself gets to be a problem, the i386 boot code ends up with:
LIBLIST= ${LIBI386} ${LIBSA} ${LIBZ} ${LIBKERN} ${LIBI386} ${LIBSA}
(or some other similar contortion)

So when routines are in libkern and libsa (and not ommited from
libkern when build SA) it tends to be rather random which version
is actually included.
