Bug#704284: release-notes: please call kfreebsd the kernel of FreeBSD, not the FreeBSD kernel



Package: release-notes
Version: r9650
Tags: wheezy patch

Hi,

To make it crystal clear that Debian GNU/kFreeBSD is not and does not
contain a version of FreeBSD, the kFreeBSD porters have generally been
careful to avoid referring to the kernel in documentation as the
"FreeBSD kernel".  Here's a patch to exercise the same care in the
release notes.

Thanks,
Jonathan
