Hm.  Well, I just compiled GENERIC using the 'old' method.  Your missing
symbols are defined in assym.s, which is generated during the compile by
genassym.sh right at the beginning:

root at k9/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/GENERIC #make
cc -c -O -pipe -march=athlon-xp -std=c99 -g -Wall -Wredundant-decls
-Wnested-externs -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith
-Winline -Wcast-qual -Wundef -Wno-pointer-sign -fformat-extensions -nostdinc -I.
-I../../.. -I../../../contrib/altq -D_KERNEL -DHAVE_KERNEL_OPTION_HEADERS
-include opt_global.h -finline-limit=8000 --param inline-unit-growth=100 --param
large-function-growth=1000 -mno-align-long-strings -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2
-mno-mmx -mno-3dnow -mno-sse -mno-sse2 -mno-sse3 -ffreestanding
../../../i386/i386/genassym.c
NM='nm' sh ../../../kern/genassym.sh genassym.o > assym.s

Do you see something different at your end?
