It looks like gcc and friends need to be built as one unit; config.h
gets built by the cc_tools directory. Try doing your build from
/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cc , and do the regular "make depend ; make ; make
install" series. The official way to source-upgrade from any version
of FreeBSD to another is to do a full buildworld/ buildkernel/
installkernel/ installworld series (even p# releases, since there may
be security fixes in userland binaries), so trying to build single
binaries after the fact isn't guaranteed to be easy (or work).
