The config / make depends / make technique simply will not work across the change in the Makefiles. The new kernel will not build with the old .mk files. Only make buildkernel will use the new makefiles before they are installed in the system. Of course, if you installed the new system before building the new kernel, you would not have hit this problem, but you are living dangerously when you install the new world and try to run with the old kernel.
