Thanks for the hints. I updated my tools and everything, then I 
successfully run "make". However, installation fails:

install ===>  accf_dataready

#   install  /stand/i386/5.99.48/modules/accf_dataready/accf_dataready.kmod

dirs=/stand/i386\ /stand/i386/5.99.48\ /stand/i386/5.99.48/modules;  for d in 
$dirs; do  /usr/src/tooldir.NetBSD-5.99.44-i386/bin/i486--netbsdelf-install  -N 
/usr/src/etc -d $d;  done

sh: /usr/src/tooldir.NetBSD-5.99.44-i386/bin/i486--netbsdelf-install: not found

*** Error code 127


the path indeed does not exist.

$ echo $TOOLDIR

/usr/tools


is set as you said.

The closest thing i can see is:

/usr/tools/bin/i486--netbsdelf-install

Probably the confusion arises that the upcoming kernel is modular.

Thank you,
