Wojciech A. Koszek 9e2f7513e1 Bump config(8) version and build requirement for config(8) to 600006. This
is caused by my latest changes to config(8). You're supposed to install new
config(8) in order to prevent yourself from seeing a warning about old
version of that tool.

You should configure the kernel with a new config(8) then.

/*
* 6 digits of version. The most significant are branch indicators at the
* time when the last incompatible change was made (which is why it is
* presently 6 on 7-current). The least significant digits are incremented
* as described below. The format is similar to the __FreeBSD_version, but
* not tied to it.
*
* DO NOT CASUALLY BUMP THIS NUMBER! The rules are not the same as shared
* libs or param.h/osreldate.
*
* It is the version number of the protocol between config(8) and the
* sys/conf/ Makefiles (the kernel build system).
*
* It is now also used to trap certain problems that the syntax parser cannot
* detect.
*
* Unfortunately, there is no version number for user supplied config files.
*
* Once, config(8) used to silently report errors and continue anyway. This
* was a huge problem for 'make buildkernel' which was run with the installed
* /usr/sbin/config, not a cross built one. We started bumping the version
* number as a way to trap cases where the previous installworld was not
* compatable with the new buildkernel. The buildtools phase and much more
* comprehensive error code returns solved this original problem.
*
* Most end-users will use buildkernel and the build tools from buildworld.
* The people that are inconvenienced by gratuitous bumps are developers
* who run config by hand. However, developers shouldn't gratuitously be
* inconvenienced.
*
* One should bump the CONFIGVERS in the following ways:
*
* (1) If you change config such that it won't read old config files,
* then bump the major number. You shouldn't be doing this unless
* you are overhauling config. Do not casually bump this number
* and by implication do not make changes that would force a bump
* of this number casually. You should limit major bumps to once
* per branch.
* (2) For each new feature added, bump the minor version of this file.
* When a new feature is actually used by the build system, update the
* %VERSREQ field in the Makefile.$ARCH of all the affected makefiles
* (typically all of them).
*
