I have a 1.2 release Dragonfly system, and as the new gobsd pkgsrc

tried to upgrade my system.

make buildworld - success
make installworld - tells me to upgrade the kernel first and reboot
kernel compile - config MYKERNEL says that the config utility is too old.
Am I trapped, or is there any solution? Maybe a precompiled 1.3.5+ 
kernel to download for i386?
Hmm, the correct sequence should be:

make buildworld
make buildkernel
make installkernel
make installworld
make upgrade
buildkernel should use the config built by buildworld afaik.
