>Description:
	The mount_kernfs(8) man-page lists two files that don't exist
	in /kern on my system:

     root       the system root directory.  In a chroot'ed environment,
                mount_kernfs can be used to create a new /kern mount point.
                /kern/root will then refer to the system global root, not the
                current process root.
     rrootdev   the raw root device.

	I'm not sure if this is a bug in kernfs or in the man page.

>How-To-Repeat:
	man mount_kernfs
	ls /kern
