Crank that baby up (no more than 1/2G, please!), delete your kernel
build directory in case the dependencies aren't all there, and build
a new kernel.

If it doesn't crank up, post to the -current list, or send to John Dyson
directly, and he can explain why, and maybe you can fix it (but it may
just work).
