freebsd stable - Jun 2012 - Kernel modules are broken after updating to the latest FreeBSD 9-STABLE

Yesterday I updated to the latest version of FreeBSD 9-STABLE. I
always follow the procedure in the manual ->
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
And I use the GENERIC config with no modifications.

The system boots fine, however quite a few important kernel modules no
longer works. Specifically nullfs, fdescfs, zfs, zlib, xfs, while some
other modules like geom_mirror and geom_raid works.

I get the following error messages:
KLD nullfs.ko: depends on kernel - not available or version mismatch
linker_load_file: Unsupported file type
KLD fdescfs.ko: depends on kernel - not available or version mismatch
linker_load_file: Unsupported file type

What could have gone wrong? What can I do to fix this?

Did you miss the buildkernel/installkernel steps?

No I didn't miss the buildkernel/installkernel steps :)

I've tried everything from deleting /usr/obj /usr/src, csup'ing a new
source to make build/kernel/world without -j

I see with uname -a that the kernel date is in february (last time
updated this server). Why doesn't it update to june? /boot/kernel is
created in june. Is it something wrong with my source files? Should I
try updating with cvsup instead of csup?

I got the right kernel to load after doing a make installkernel in
single user mode.
However I still have a problem starting my jails. I get the following
error message for each jail I start.

/lib/libc.so.7: version FBSD_1.3 required by /bin/sh not found

I use ezjail, are there some other way to update it than just using
ezjail-admin update -i?
