If you put KERNCONF into make.conf, you can simplify it to:
make kernel
Just to be clear, if I add the appropriate KERNCONF line in /etc/make.conf, "make kernel" will take
care of both "make buildkernel" AND "make installkernel"? (w/o the KERNCONF= part)

Last I heard, the better way to define KERNCONF in make.conf is as follows:
KERNCONF?=MYKERNEL
Then you can use "make kernel" as you say, but should you need to compile a
kernel using an alternate configuration, you can still issue the "make
kernel KERNCONF=MYOTHERKERNEL" on the command line.
Similarly, if you choose to set CPUTYPE in make.conf, use a line such as:
CPUTYPE?=p4
That way it can be overridden if necessary by other commands, but will
default to your choice.
