A couple of folks on freebsd-current seem to have tied this
to the -j switch used when building.   (Why use of -j eventually
leads to a complaint about -J is still a mystery.)

Could you try editing lib/freebsd.sh to remove the
     -j ${WORLDJOBS}
option from the buildworld command and see if that changes
anything?
