Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Replying to [comment:4 ritterml]:
 > Why is this reference even here? My theme has nothing to do with Kubrick
 and this comment should not be in the core HTML.

 The files from `wp-includes/theme-compat` directory are indeed inherited
 from Kubrick, but they only exist in core for backward compatibility.

 These files are only included as a fallback if your theme doesn't have a
 required template. If you create a `footer.php` file in your theme, then
 the one from `theme-compat` won't be included.

 See [14365], #12425, and #13009 for more details.
