You could either use:

# make buildkernel -DNOCLEAN KERNCONF=MY_CONF

or you could just:

# cd /sys/modules/sound/driver/emu10k1
# make install

If you're careful about what's using the driver you can probably get away
with just unloading and reloading the module to test your changes, rather
than rebooting every time.
