You need to do:

(set -e; cd sys/boot; make clean; make obj; make depend; make all)

The issue is that some of the dependencies aren't completely articulated (esp the .a files), so if they were created incorrectly, it will cause you grief :(..

What issues are you running into, what revision are you running, and why wasn't this email sent to current@?
