As others have pointed out, /usr/src/sys. There are no other
dependencies needed to work with that source.

Again, as others have pointed out, cvsup, cvs, and a few
others. However, unlike other systems, if you update the kernel
sources, you need to update the rest of the system as well. And vice
versa. Read the documentation (say /usr/src/UPDATING!!) for more info.
