If you don't mind wasting a few cycles, you can restart the build with
-DNOCLEAN and wait a bit.  If the build was interrupted because of the
detach, it will resume building everything and finish a lot faster than
a full buildworld.

Having said that, one of the last things that get built is
src/usr.sbin/zzz.  You can check if /usr/obj/usr/src/usr.sbin/zzz/zzz
exists.  If it does, you can probably assume the build finished
successfully.
