Did you update "config"? If you have all the sources, "./build.sh -t"
at the top-level will install an updated "nbconfig" into
${TOOLDIR}/bin (among other things), which you can then use in lieu of
"config". You should then build with "nbmake-`uname -m`" in lieu of
"make" -- "nbmake-*" will also be found in ${TOOLDIR}/bin.

A checkout of only "syssrc" does give you the sources for
"usr.sbin/config", but it probably won't build at all against a 1.5*
toolchain, so "syssrc" alone isn't much good. (If you already had 1.6
installed, you could check out "src/sys" to build just a kernel -- you
wouldn't need any of the other things in "syssrc" -- but I guess you
don't, or you wouldn't see that error.)
