OK, I recently (very recently, in fact) "supped" the CURRENT sources
(everything!).  Now, I'm getting strange and wonderful *new* errors when I
try to do a kernel build.  

config MYKERNEL says "Unknown % construct in generic makefile: %SFILES".

Then trying to do a make on the generated files produces:

"Makefile", line 328: Could not find bsd.kern.mk
Fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue

Is this related to having recently updated my sources?  Do I need to make
world before I can even think about rebuilding a kernel?
