You're venturing into some virgin territory, but some old advice in the
FreeBSD Handbook still applies -- if you intend to run CURRENT,
subscribe to the freebsd-current mailing list a little while _before_
you intend to migrate.

Recent discusssions on the freebsd-current mailing list would answer
this question:

And the answer is... ;-)

You'll need to build and install config(8) first. You might get away
with this:

	cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/config
	make cleandir && make obj && make install

Ciao,
Sheldon.
