I see the same error on a machine which runs:
root at kg-fil# uname -a
FreeBSD kg-fil.kg4.no 6.0-STABLE FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE #2: Sat Jan  7
23:08:43 CET 2006     root at kg-fil.kg4.no:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/FIL60 
amd64

and on another:
root at kg-quiet# uname -a
FreeBSD kg-quiet.kg4.no 6.0-STABLE FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE #3: Sun Jan  8
20:22:06 CET 2006     root at kg-quiet.kg4.no:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/QUIET 
amd64

But on my i386 machine, it installed without problems. This machine
runs:
root at kg-work# uname -a
FreeBSD kg-work.kg4.no 5.4-STABLE FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE #5: Sat Dec 31
16:54:14 CET 2005     root at kg-work.kg4.no:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SS51G 
i386

Well, you should probably send-pr(1) it, if nobody has done so already.
