Edit sys/conf/files and add the actual *files* to be compiled, not the
directory.

You should never edit the kernel Makefiles.

Modules are built as part of the kernel build. You can also build
modules idependantly in sys/modules. Note that module code should not
depend on options from the kernel configuration file (or if they do,
these options need to be set up seperately in the module's Makefile).
