>Description:

It's not possible to build file system kernel modules without having
kernel source code.  This is because vnode_if.pl and vnode_if.src from
the source tree are required.

>How-To-Repeat:

Write a KLD implementing a file system.  Try to compile without kernel
source code.

>Fix:

apply the following patch to kern/Makefile and then make sure to check
in vnode_if.h
