This is (probably -- since you didn't give the exact error message I can't be sure) because your kernel and your world are out of sync. This isn't Linux; the kernel and the userland are not independent of one another. If you want to build a new kernel, you must also do a make [build|install]world. You can look at the handbook for more information; I believe it's chapter 18 (the title is "Staying up-to-date with FreeBSD" or something similar).
