you should read the file 'UPDATING' in at the root of the src tree.
You'll see that there is a bunch of programs to update before 'make build'.

I think that to update from 1.5.1 to -current you have to:
- rebuild and reinstall make. Now that you've installed the new mk files (by
  the 'make build' it may not work, but you can always use
  'make -f Makefile.boot'; this will produce a bmake binary that you can copy
   to /usr/bin/make
- rebuild and reinstall yacc
- do a 'make includes' in src/, then a
  'make MKSHARE=no MKLINT=no && make MKSHARE=no MKLINT=no install'
  in src/lib/libc to install a new libc
- rebuild and install lint (src/usr.bin/xlint)
- build and install mklocale

One this is done you should be able to do a 'make build'.

Yes, unless DESTDIR is set.
