They are gone, for the most part. r197065: http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=197065
Remove extra debugging support that is turned on for head but turned off for stable branches:
- shift to MALLOC_PRODUCTION
- turn off automatic crash dumps
- Remove kernel debuggers, INVARIANTS*[1], WITNESS* from
GENERIC kernel config files[2]
[1] INVARIANTS* left on for ia64 by request marcel
[2] sun4v was left as-is
