I want to compile and run a specific version of a FreeBSD utility from the source code.

For example, I downloaded the repo for the following utility: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/stable/9/sbin/routed/

However, when I run the make command, I get the following error: 

"../Makefile.inc", line 3: Cannot open ../Makefile.inc
make: fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue
*** [all] Error code 1

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Check out the whole FreeBSD src tree, not just one subdirectory.

The FreeBSD builsystem uses a lot of Makefiles which are including each other. Your build fails because one of the required Makefiles doesn't exist on your filesystem.
