If by 'folder' you mean a 'directory', and in particular, a directory
living under src/sys/modules/, then you are actually trying to compile
a module.  You do it by:

  cd /usr/src/sys/modules/blah && make clean depend && make all install clean

However, there is no 'ie' or 'if_ie' module for the 'ie' interface;
this means that you are stuck with recompiling the whole kernel.

G'luck,
