Thanks for your hint about the "obvious":

1) whiping /usr/src
2) git clone https://git.freebsd.org/src.git --branch stable/14 /usr/src
3) make buildworld && make kernel
4) rsync /usr/obj to remote server

Bingo! Now, a 'make installworld' at the remote server doesn't run into the reported error again.

I do not have the slightest clue why and what might have happened while 'git checkout' operations or what so ever.

Anyway, thanks for your hint and all the other input!

Regards,
Michael
