Kernel should not have dependencies > outside sys/. There are no dependencies on building the kernel outside of sys, if you are building on a system that's had all the system components installed. You have to build with the 'classic' method of building the kernel. buildkernel does require a source tree. If there are hidden dependencies (I just checked and there's nothing obvious), it's a bug and we'll fix it ASAP. Warner
