You're probably using -jX with installworld.  If so, a fix for this
has been in HEAD as of a few days:

:   Log:
:   Serialize access to the info/dir file; needed for parallel installs.

:   Revision  Changes    Path
:   1.514     +1 -1      src/Makefile.inc1
:   1.72      +1 -0      src/share/mk/bsd.info.mk

I'm not happy with this because it broke NFS installs.  Once I find
a proper fix, I will also make sure to MFC it to RELENG_6.
