Harold,

which version are you running now?

I was recently upgrading an old system running 4.6-RELEASE to
4.8-RELEASE-p10
and encountered similar error during buildworld. The problem disappeared 
after I removed completely /usr/obj/*. Try that, then rebuild world, then 
rebuild kernel.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
