Nope.  I'm stating the obvious.  If you are using
META_MODE and you do "make buildwould" that is 
equivalent to "make -DNO_CLEAN buildworld", which
means you did not rebuild the *world*. 
When I see a commit message of the form (and I've
haven't seen one like this in 25+ years of using
FreeBSD (aka 386BSD+patchkit))

It suggests that whomever did the commit did not properly test
the patch.  The use of META_MODE (or any other shortcut) when
testing simply isn't proper testing.
