Hi,
6.2-RELEASE? -STABLE?

You should update your system before putting a system live. If you are using a default kernel configuration (aka GENERIC), use freebsd-update to bring it up to date. (man freebsd-update).

You should also update your ports collection. Check the handbook for how to do this. You can find the handbook in freebsd.org. And then upgrade all ports (or at least the ones that have security issues and are related to your issue at hand, eg, gmake).
you can use portaudit ( ports-mgmt/portaudit ) to check for security issues .

locate libkvm in my system shows 
/lib/libkvm.so.3

(and tons of other files which are not necessarily what gmake is actually trying to use).

You could use libmap.conf to remap the calls from libkvm.so.2 to libkvm.so.3 , but I suggest you upgrade your wolrd + kernel + ports first.

If you have any more questions / problems, just send them to the list :)
