| Are you running make(1) with -j options?  If yes, what are they?

No. I don't define any compiler optimizations at all. Never done it
ever!

Well, I simply do the following (as root):
cd /usr/src
make buildworld | tee ./buildworld.txt | tail -n 20 | mail root &

Root, as by default, has write access to every part of this system:-)

I am so stumped as to why I encounter this failure.
