I was also having this problem.  I tried using 'make -k' to see if I
could just skip the ipfw stuff.  That built almost everything.  (Two
other programs failed, also in ways that looked like out-of-sync
header files.)

Eventually, I discovered that the problem seems to be that I had followed
the advice of the Web page and created a separate source tree for the
-stable sources.  The make was creating a link from /sys to /usr/src/sys,
instead of to the sys subdir of my alternate source tree.  This meant
that everything that included headers from the kernel sources got the
old versions instead of the -stable ones.  (Setting DESTDIR might have
prevented that; but I didn't know about DESTDIR when I tried the first
build...)

My solution was to rename the old /usr/src and install the -stable
sources as /usr/src, then do another 'make world'.  It just finished.
(One error, listed below), I'm rebuilding my kernel now.
