Yep, the edge channel follows the bleeding edge:

$ snap info snapcraft
...
channels:
  stable:    2.35                (794) 53MB classic
  candidate: ↑
  beta:      2.36.1              (876) 53MB classic
  edge:      2.36.1+git6.3524514 (895) 53MB classic

you better switch to beta (and then stable when 2.36.1 gets promoted there):

$ snap refresh --beta snapcraft

That is weird, how did you do that?

My experience with the O=... option (that mimicks the other rpm-pkg
and deb-pkg targets) is that, you first create the dir, copy there the
.config and it builds fine:

~/linux $ mke defconfig
...
~/linux $ mkdir /tmp/foobar
~/linux $ mv .config /tmp/foobar
~/linux $ git clean -ffdx
~/linux $ make O=/tmp/foobar snap-pkg
...
Snapped kernel_4.14.0+_amd64.snap
~/linux $ ls -la /tmp/foobar/snap/
