H A Dmenu.4th.8diff 228985 Fri Dec 30 04:26:08 MST 2011 pluknet Unset the environment variables associated with individual menu items
before invoking the kernel.

Quoting submitter:

The issue is with the new boot loader menu. It adds many loader variables
including ones that contain ANSI color escapes.

Obviously, these ANSI codes don't play well with serial consoles when
kenv(1) is executed without arguments (reports vary as to what happens,
but it's never pretty).

The net-effect is that kenv(1) no longer reports menu-related variables.

In essence, kenv(1) output should now appear the same as on RELENG_8
(which lacks the new boot loader and didn't use any such variables).
Thus, restoring serial console glory.
