>Description:
The following pages:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug-post-mortem.html
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug-kld.html

can be removed altogether, because steps described on them are not neccessary for a long time - MAKEOPTIONS -g is default since at least 7.2, and kgdb(1) already knows how to load kernel modules and symbols without any configuration or user intervention.

   Log:
   Remove two sections about kerneldebugging (post mortem analysis and
   loadable modules using gdb) because the steps described in them are
   not necessary anymore for quite a long time.
   
   A rewrite would be in order, but since this goes beyond the scope of
   the PR, I'll just remove them for now.
