so, the kernels built are defined by KERNEL - there is no default.
The default is GENERIC.
It should be easy enough to extract a more likely default from uname -v.
Yes.
The reason for GENERIC is simply because that's a kernel config that works with the sources. It also works better when cross-building and uname doesn't (in general) present us with a usable name for the architecture we're building for (except of course when it's GENERIC). A user-supplied kernel config may not work (due to changes in the source tree; or simply because we have changed our config tool). For upgrading purposes, it's therefore safer to use GENERIC. A knowledgable user can override this default (/etc/make.conf) and should know that any build and/or boot problems are therefore his/her own responsibility.
