One inconsistent thing still existing is that if you set
KERNEL=WHATEVER in /etc/make.conf, it does the right thing for "make
buildkernel" but it does the wrong thing, ie, installs the kernel as
/WHATEVER when you do a normal config WHATEVER followed by make; make
install of the kernel.

It is easiest to leave out the /etc/make.conf line to avoid this.
