Architecture: i386

>Description:
        It would be a good idea in my opinion to always include a
        MONOLITHIC kernel for -current releases, which GENERIC now
        appears dependent on modules.  A monolothic kernel will
        greatly simplify upgrades or testing when a bug on another
        branch must be tested for existence on -current.
>How-To-Repeat:
        Follow a standard -current tracking procedure and discover
        problems when using GENERIC.  Discover that MONOLITHIC
        should be built but is not already available in daily
        snapshots.
>Fix:
        I think that the following could be added to
        etc/etc.i386/Makefile.inc:

        KERNEL_SETS+= MONOLITHIC
