I don't know if it will help, but you might have better luck using the
'make buildkernel KERNEL=[your kernel]' 'make installkernel' method, which
I believe is now the officially preferred method for kernel builds,
especially with upgraded systems. This is detailed in /src/UPDATING. I
don't know if it's yet filtered into the handbook, but I would definitely
take a look at UPDATING. (It's not so bad. Initially, I was greatly peeved
that my 'config' 'make' thing had been deprecated, but I don't think the
newer method is at all a pain. There are just a few more steps to it.)
