Actually never mind.  We already have the inverse of this;  a new
kernel image set a Breaks: on versions of userland packages too
old to properly boot the system, and this ensures they get upgraded.
I /think/ that's okay and desirable.

Clearly the updated userland needs to stay barely functional until
the new kernel is actually booted, and that's one of the reasons we
can't do the inverse (set a Breaks: in freebsd-net-tools).
