It seems you've fetched the kernel sources only. In this case, you can't do a make buildkernel since no Makefile is there ... try to fetch src-base too with cvsup or try to build the new kernel with config, make depend etc. In any case, you might run into problems because system binaries and kernel originate from different system versions. You should prefer to fetch src-all and to rebuild system and kernel although this takes more time.
