It sounds like you could solve this by merely downloading
and untarring the sources. Or untarring the sources from
your CD, if you have one.
Download everything in
http://mirror.pacific.net.au/FreeBSD/releases/i386/7.2-RELEASE/src/
into a directory and issue
./install.sh all
This should work fine, even if you are running some other architecture
as the sources are the same.
