updating 15.0-CURRENT from ~ 3 weeks ago to 15.0-ALPHA1

NB I built my own pkgbase set, based off stable/15 @ 0b3d82579a01db4c5d874cda1ac468bb8f26c109

The overall plan is:

upgrade only the GENERIC kernel package from my pkgbase set
reboot
upgrade all the remaining base system packages from my pkgbase set
update the EFI boot loader from the just-installed FreeBSD-bootloader

this seems to work ok, but fails on reboot:

switch to /bin/sh first
pkg-static upgrade -r FreeBSD (now they're upgraded)
pkg-static upgrade -r pkg-base
check tools listed above
check password file specifically

Starting syslogd.
