Description david 2001-02-06 00:10:01 UTC 
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/makeworld.html
Section 19.4.6.4
The "Note:" says to pass the same arguments to make for both buildworld and installworld, but passing -j# to installworld will fail with odd messages.

Fix: 

Tell readers not to pass -j# to installworld somewhere (possibly multiple places) in http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/makeworld.html
How-To-Repeat: make -j4 buildworld
make -j4 installworld

I believe this has been remedied with Nik's update to that part of the 
Handbook.  Can you confirm this?
