For the task at hand, at least, I suggest to just move /etc/make.conf

Oh -- and I'm presently running:

FreeBSD g1-227.catwhisker.org 9.1-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 9.1-PRERELEASE #258 240989M: Thu Sep 27 04:50:32 PDT 2012     root at g1-227.catwhisker.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/CANARY  i386

on my laptop -- though I rebuilt earlier today, with sources at:
