This error shown here is *exactly* what Randy Bush posted about a few
days ago.  Please read the ENTIRE THREAD.

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2012-January/065616.html

The root cause was a bad cvsup server.  Randy posted to freebsd-hubs
about the problem (I haven't looked to find the mail though).

No, this is a different error, which could ALSO be caused by a bad cvsup
server.

You should post these problems to freebsd-hubs; the owners of the cvsup
servers need to be made aware of these problems.

Finally: please stop with the "cleandir".  rm -fr /usr/obj/* and do not
use make -jX at all.  This will rule out any inconsistencies.
