This brings up an interesting question.  In the FreeBSD FAQ it says
that to rebuild the kernel one does:

	6.0.1:		cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf
	6.0.2:		cp GENERIC MYKERNEL
	6.0.3:		vi MYKERNEL
	6.0.4:		config MYKERNEL
	6.0.5:		cd ../../compile/MYKERNEL
	6.0.6:		make all
	6.0.7:		make install
	6.0.8:		reboot

Does this mean that no make depend is necessary, or that make depend
is implied as part of step 6.0.4?  Maybe an update to the FAQ is
necessary, or else the new config program is correct.

Cheers,
-Wes
