Hey there,

Make sure that in your kernel file you have:

device          miibus         
device          xl              

You need the miibus device as the xl device depends on it.  Also, make
sure you did a /usr/sbin/config KERNELNAME before you started the make
depend.  :)

Hope this helps,
Cheers,
Marc
