make buildworld failed with error "relocation truncated to fit: R_ARM_JUMP24 against symbol `_fini'"

[Hamza Sheikh]

I am running FreeBSD on Raspberry Pi 2, installed from a RaspBSD[1] 
image. It is a new 64GB Micro SD card. I was running out of space on 8GB 
card during `make installworld`.

== Investigation ==

Some quick searching[2] shows it may be a code issue. I'm unqualified to 
either confirm or even test this assumption. Any help/pointers greatly 
appreciated.
