Thank you.

It would appear my problem was that I tried to build the kernel before 
building userland. I was under the impression the tools built during 
buildworld were never used until they were installed, so I have gotten into 
the habit of building/installing the kernel first, and then if it boots 
update userland afterwards. Hence my problem.

I'll see about submitting a documentation patch for review.
