You can't delete /usr/include befor make buildworld.
You need the include files for you currently installed system to
build the build tools, since the build tools need to run on your
installed system, not on the system you are about to build.
If you are worried about stall includes you can remove them befor
installworld, since the buildtools are already compiled as part of
the buildworld.

The better way is to not do it at all befor you've build the new
world, since this is foot shooting.
