buildworld needs root privileges?

This is actually a quirk of the install.sh script that is used.  It
discards any unwanted install options (see the script itself for the
details), but that fails if the first argument is "", as it is in your
case.

It seems install.sh is run from bsd.prog.mk, as follows:

        ${INSTALL} ${STRIP} -o ${BINOWN} -g ${BINGRP} -m ${BINMODE} \
            ${_INSTALLFLAGS} ${PROG} ${DESTDIR}${BINDIR}

So I guess that you've managed to set ${STRIP} to "", for some reason.
Try unsetting it, or setting it to -s if you like, and run buildworld
again.

As a comparison, here's part of a (successful) buildworld log from one
of my machines, from today:
