Hmm. Looking inside various poudriere-devel jails I have around,
starting with one for a FreeBSD 14 release:

/usr/local/poudriere/jails/release14-amd64/lib/libutil.so.9

compared-to/contrasted-with to a modern release (15):

/usr/local/poudriere/jails/release-amd64/lib/libutil.so.10

and to main (16):

/usr/local/poudriere/jails/main-amd64/lib/libutil.so.10

This suggests that something is using an env from a FreeBSD 14 but does
not have the matching libutil.so.9 from a matching 14 to also put to use.

Did you intend on any FreeBSD 14 involvement?
