You definitely don't want to change the lines in the makefile. The build is set up so that you only (ever) run the xenv build once, so it is not built by the makefile by default.

Correct. You should build the xenv by hand once. This is left over from the days when the native Linux G++ compiler worked and most compilations didn't require an xenv. Now that they all do I should figure out what to do about this.

It looks to me like the kernel configuration didn't get generated properly. If you look at SaveArea.h, you'll see that it includes "fixregs.h". First, double check that I remember this right, and that fixregs.h is a generated file. If so, delete it to force it to be regenerated, then go back up to sys/ and type "make".
This could be a python or awk problem if it persists.
Interesting. I just noticed that it's not getting generated correctly in the automated source tree online either.
I'm probably not going to have time to look at this before 22 May, because I'm out of town all next week, but I'll try. The short version is that fixregs.h is a generated file, and the file isn't getting built correctly.
