I reported this to toolchain back on 2019-Dec-14 and 15, for updating to
head -r355761 then -r355777 at the time:

It is not just your context that has the issue.
The 2nd message showed some interesting timestamps from the build.
I've found that re-running buildworld (not from scratch) with -j1
then doing installworld seemed to reliably deal with it. Allowing
-j32 was unreliable for the rerun. (Despite that early report.)
