FWIW, i can't find this error message ("resource conflict avoided")
anywhere in /usr/src, /usr/include, nor /usr/ports on RELENG_8 source
dated from 2 hours ago.

grep -ri "resource conflict" /usr/src does return some results, but
nothing that looks identical to the string you posted.

Only reason I'm pointing this out: it would be good to find the commit
that breaks things for you, if there is such a commit, but we need
something to key off of.
