just for experiment, try:

cd /usr/src
make buildkernel KERNCONF=<YOUR_KERN_CONF> && make installkernel KERNCONF=<YOUR_KERN_CONF>

did you ever make clean? anyway this is true: you are using the old style
of kernel rebuilding. On my mind the new one is more convenient, so I don't
know why people fight with old one - habit? :)

just do as is written in handbook and then say what is not true in it
