Does your kernel Makefile contain a section like below?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# XXX - Ugly, but make doesn't easily handle .o.uue (assumes it's a suffix)
# XXX - Also, config has no simple was to just add foo.o to the Makefile.
#       It needs a pathname of some sort for "object"
.if !empty(OBJS:M\/athhal-elf.o)
OBJS:=${OBJS:C/\/athhal-elf.o/athhal-elf.o/}

.PATH: $S/../contrib/sys/arch/i386/dev
ATH_UUDEC?=     @${_MKSHMSG} "uudecode ${.CURDIR:T}/${.TARGET}"; \
                ${_MKSHECHO}\
                ${UUDECODE} -p $> \> ${.TARGET}; \
                rm -f ${.TARGET}; \
                ${UUDECODE} -p $> > ${.TARGET}
athhal-elf.o: athhal-elf-o.uue
        ${ATH_UUDEC}
.endif

	This is the piece of "makefile"'ese magic is added by "config" when
an "ath" is configured in. (my config's are all either PCI only or PCI+CardBus,
maybe there is a bug if the configuration is CardBus only - I don't know - is
that your case?  In fact, it looks like the "magic" is triggered by the config
`source' file at ".../sys/dev/pci/files.ath", so that may likely be the bug if
that is the type of configuration you're trying to create.)

	If not, check the config file, rerun config look again;  If it's still
missing, all I can offer is "it works for me" using "-current sources.  It
works just two minutes ago!

	Good luck,
