You are removing things from your kernel config file that you don't 
understand.  That almost guarantees compile failure.   Read
/usr/src/sys/i386/conf/LINT
	I see at least the one error, the same as Doug made.  You commented 
out da and scbus and those are required for USB.  You also randomly 
commented out things in USB that may be required, but left others.  You 
may also have commented out other things that are required, I don't 
know.
	The best policy is not to take anything out you aren't sure you don't 
need.  If you don't know what you need, read LINT, and beyond that only 
take out one thing at a time.  If it breaks your kernel compile then 
you needed that!  :)
	As a side note re-read the handbook chapter on configureing a kernel.  
In the section on building a kernel it says that if you have not 
cvsupped your source you can use the 1st method.  If you have cvsupped 
your source, you have to use the second method AFTER doing a make 
buildworld.
	The second method, make buildkernel KERNEL=MYKERNELNAME, etc 
SHOULD be able to be used without having updated sources and using make 
buildworld, but currently (as of last week) it is a little broken, so 
the 1st method of kernel compile has to be used if sources haven't been 
touched.  That problem may have already been fixed.
