 Section 7.3 doesn't talk about buildkernel; it's entitled "The MBR,
 and Boot Stages One, Two, and Three".  Furthermore, the only place
 "KERNEL=" appears in the Handbook is in the paragraph where it is
 contrasted with KERNCONF=.
 
 You must be looking at a different document, or at least a very old one.
