The rule to make "vers.o" should be in
"/usr/src/sys/conf/Makefile.kern.inc". 1.6 sources have this version
of that file:

 revision 1.13.4.6
 date: 2002/08/17 16:02:38;  author: lukem;  state: Exp;  lines: +2 -2
 Pull up revision 1.20 (requested by lukem):
 vers.o should also depend upon $S/conf/newvers.sh and
 $S/conf/osrelease.sh

The previous version was in 1.6_RC1. Did you download the sources
dated September 11 from the NetBSD-1-6/sources directory, or do you
have something else?
