Congratulations! You've just discovered that FreeBSD is not like Linux.
You must upgrade your userland and kernel at the same time, or you will
run into things like this that are meant to catch miscreants.

Hold out your hand.  *SLAP*

You must build world before kernel. Chant 100 times then try again. See
Chapter 19 of http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/, and /usr/src/UPDATING.
