I had/have the same problem, just intermittently (buildkernel dying make
"wi"). To get around it, I found doing the "traditional"

   cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf
   config -r YOURKERNEL
   cd ../../compile/YOURKERNEL
   make depend && make && make install

works if the buildkernel fails, and afterwards I *can* successfully
complete a buildkernel. Not sure what's broken, but something is flakey.
If I can reproduce it again, I'll do a little more investigation.
