Having said that, there is this entry in /usr/src/UPDATING dating from =
early May:

20100502:
        The config(8) command has been updated to maintain compatibility
        with config files from 8.0-RELEASE.  You will need a new version
        of config to build kernels (this version can be used from =
8.0-RELEASE
        forward).  The buildworld target will generate it, so following
        the instructions in this file for updating will work =
glitch-free.
        Merely doing a make buildkernel without first doing a make =
buildworld
        (or kernel-toolchain), or attempting to build a kernel using
        traidtional methods will generate a config version warning, =
indicating
        you should update.


Stefan's kernel looks to have last been built on 20th February 2010.  It =
isn't explicit in the first posting of this thread how Stefan is doing =
his build, so there is a possibility that he's being affected by the =
above UPDATING entry.

Cheers,

Paul.
