This is coming from kern.post.mk:

It looks like you have PORTS_MODULES defined in your /etc/make.conf
file.  This causes all defined PORTS_MODULES to be updated when the
kernel is built.

The problem is a missing ending quote and the directory to where the
nvidia-driver is located in the ports tree.

You'll need to either remove PORTS_MODULES, or fix it to show the
correct location of the nvidia-driver port in /etc/make.conf.

PORTS_MODULES= x11/nvidia-driver
