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