Make release of -current is failing, because the install kernel is
too large to fit into the filesystem on the boot floppy:

Does anybody have an idea of what we can take out?  It seems likely
that when CAM comes in, it will further expand the kernel.  And CAM
definitely needs to come in.

It looks like we are currently too big by about 3K.
