He don't need to compile his own kernel. There is a kernel on
ftp://ftp.uni-regensburg.de/pub/NetBSD-Amiga/kernel

-rw-rw-r-- 1 39068 ftpadmin  579598 Jun 26 17:28 PicassoIV-1.2.1-kernel.gz
-rw-rw-r-- 1 39068 ftpadmin     652 Jun 26 17:33 PicassoIV-1.2.1-kernel.readme

and this is a kernel for 1.2:

-rw-rw-r-- 1 39068 ftpadmin  578287 Apr 19 13:43 
PicassoIV-MerlinZorroIII-kernel2.gz
-rw-rw-r-- 1 39068 ftpadmin     726 Apr 19 13:43 
PicassoIV-MerlinZorroIII-kernel2.reame

But you can get patches from the experimental directory and build your own 
kernel:

-rw-rw-r-- 1 39068 ftpadmin     742 Apr 23 20:08 
PicassoIV-MerlinZorroIII-source2.readme
-rw-rw-r-- 1 39068 ftpadmin   33163 Apr 23 20:09 
PicassoIV-MerlinZorroIII-source2.tgz
