Maybe I'm missing something then, but a plain HEAD still does not compile
for me. As in:

===> usr.bin/truss^M
cp /usr/src/usr.bin/truss/../../sys/kern/syscalls.master syscalls.master^M
/bin/sh /usr/src/usr.bin/truss/../../sys/kern/makesyscalls.sh
syscalls.master  /u
sr/src/usr.bin/truss/i386.conf^M
awk: floating point exception 8^M
 input record number 325, file ^M
 source line number 87^M
*** Error code 2^M
^M
Stop in /usr/src/usr.bin/truss.^M
