 Well, as a matter of fact you DO need all the sources to build a custom
 kernel (this has been changed some time ago).  And
 http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig-building.html
 is telling you that (as a note, maybe it should be a warning and at the
 beginning of this section):
 
 "Note: It is required to have full FreeBSD source tree to build the kernel."
