pkg thinks kernel is old

This message of pkg is misleading.

It looks at /bin/sh or something like that for the version. And prints that as the 'kernel' version. So if you did an incremental build and /bin/sh was not changed the version stays the same.
To fix it you can do a clean buildworld/installworld.

Regards,
Ronald.
