A new group was added to the group file, and then used as part of the installation. Of course, 'make world' will not install the new group file for you. Run 'diff' on /etc/group and /usr/src/etc/group to see what the differences are. As I recall, you need to add a 'network' group to /etc/group. You can restart the 'make world' with # cd /usr/src; make -DNOCLEAN world which will not wipe out the results of the previous build, or # cd /usr/src; make world if you want to start from the beginning.
