>Description:
bsd.kern.mk contains a spelling error
>How-To-Repeat:
I've done it a thousand times myself.  Loose means floppy or
untight. :)  Lose is `to suffer deprivation of'.  Read the comments
in bsd.kern.mk and witness the loose lose.

*** 23,29 ****
  # 2.95 adds code to the entry and exit point of every function to align the
  # stack to 16-byte boundaries -- thus wasting approximately 12 bytes of stack
  # per function call.  While the 16-byte alignment may benefit micro benchmarks, 
! # it is probably an overall loose as it makes the code bigger (less efficient
  # use of code cache tag lines) and uses more stack (less efficient use of data
  # cache tag lines)
