This actually occured some time ago, but installing the kernel
now also installs a bunch of symbol files for the kernel modules.
This increases the size of /boot/kenrnel to about 67Mbytes. You
will need twice this if you will eventually back this up to kernel.old

-DINSTALL_NODEBUG to your make arguments or add INSTALL_NODEBUG="yes"
to your /etc/make.conf.
