Well, now you shocked me a wee bit, 'cause I thought the "make depend" 
way would be the documented and supported way.
Granted, I didn't took a look into the FreeBSD Handbook for building my 
Kernel since 4.0, but now I did.
And I am glad, that the way I mentioned in my last way is documented 
(and probably supported) und the chapter "Procedure 1. Building a Kernel 
the “Traditional” Way" which is at: 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig-building.html

The way you described is mentioned as "Procedure 2. Building a Kernel 
the “New” Way" :-)

Well then, I think we're fine on that topic. I'd probably change to the 
"New" Way, since it's fewer commands to type in...
