You have to have the rest of the sources installed to use make
buildkernel; it's really only needed if you're upgrading your entire
system with make world.

By the way, please try and aim for accuracy in your posts.  So far
you've said your kernel sources are in three different locations:
/usr/src/sys, /usr/sys and /src/sys.  These things are important for
people who are trying to help you.
