You don't need to manually build it, it can be automated by inserting a
step something like:

cd /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/conf && config GENERIC && cd ../compile/GENERIC
&& make depend && make

(Be sure to add a step to install if needed.)

The BUILDING document should show you that "-d" is for building the
distribution.

Maybe for a short while. But then netbsd-1-6 will continue to get bug
fixes and some enhancements. Use netbsd-1-6-PATCH001-RELEASE.
