This is not something new. While I have seen the assertion that the KBI/KPI are
supposed to be stable between major releases as the system ABI/API are, I am
not sure that this is official policy and, even it is, it seems to be
frequently ignored.
In any case, it is because of this that the PORTS_MODULES variable and the
support for it in makekernel came into being. If you build your own kernel,
that takes care of it. If you use freebsd-update it would be a good thing if
the script printed a reminder to re-build ports after an upgrade operation. It
probably could use pkg to find all kmod ports installed and offer to re-build
them.
