The freebsd-stable mailing list has been filled with tinderbox failures
for this exact problem with the LINT kernel, and it appears to be
specific to RELENG_8 on i386.

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2012-February/thread.html

Start from the bottom and search upwards for the string:
"[releng_8 tinderbox] failure on i386/i386"

Point being: the problem is not you.
