I thought it changed because of the documentation about building
current:

http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/current/#building

Look under updating an existing system and there is a procedure
given how to build the kernel without a make depend.
I build a kernel following that procedure.

../../../../tools/obj/......nbconfig GENERIC
cd ../compile/GENERIC
../../../../../tools/obj/.......nbmake-ARCH

And the kernel will be compiled after this.
No make or nbmake depend or anything.
It's also the way the url given above describes it.
Bye,
