This makes a nonsense of the comment (and is actually something I failed
to update with the 10GBASE-R change).

The comment "10GBASE-KR, XFI, SFI" was there to describe _only_ the
following option, so your addition should look like:

	# 10GBASE-KR, XFI, SFI
	- 10gbase-kr
	# 40GBASE-KR4
	- 40gbase-kr4

Whereas there should also be a fix for the lack of 10GBASE-R, so it
should finally look like this:

	# 10GBASE-R, XFI, SFI
	- 10gbase-r
	# 10GBASE-KR (10GBASE-R with backplane negotiation)
	- 10gbase-kr
	# 40GBASE-KR4 (...)
	- 40gbase-kr4
