New Revision: 250133
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/250133

Log:
  Make the internal assertion correct--only fail when '\0' is found in
  places other than the end of the test section. Otherwise, with kernel
  compiled with Clang which happens to be setting ELF section alignment
  differently config(8) was throwing assert() failure unnecessarily
