Admittedly this is apparently dying in making depend, but world installs too and from the handbook: Note: If you specified variables on the make buildworld command line, you must specify the same variables in the make installworld command line. This does not necessarily hold true for other options; for example, -j must never be used with installworld. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Also from the handbook whilst discussing the -j option: Be aware that this is still somewhat experimental, and commits to the source tree may occasionally break this feature. If the world fails to compile using this parameter try again without it before you report any problems.
