I *believe* (from conversations on this list) that

    # cd /usr/src
    # make -m /usr/src/sys/mk buildworld
    # make -m /usr/src/sys/mk installworld
    <make new kernel, frob /etc, and so on>

is sufficient (although you could obviously combine the 'buildworld' and
'installworld' steps with the 'world' target). 

If the 'make new kernel, frob /etc' doesn't make sense, take a look at 

<URL:http://www.nothing-going-on.demon.co.uk/FreeBSD/make-world/make-world.html>;

If you can confirm that adding the '-m' flag works for you, I'll add it to 
the tutorial.
