Usually it works. But sometimes when you update sources it fails and
you need to build world (kernel toolchains actually) before
buildkernel.
From src/UPDATING:
To build a kernel
-----------------
If you are updating from a prior version of FreeBSD (even one just
a few days old), you should follow this procedure. It is the most
failsafe as it uses a /usr/obj tree with a fresh mini-buildworld,
make kernel-toolchain
make -DALWAYS_CHECK_MAKE buildkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE
make -DALWAYS_CHECK_MAKE installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE
Please learn src/UPDATING, especially "COMMON ITEMS" section at the
end of the file.
I'll close your PR if you don't object.
