It could be a pilot error on your part as well.  The gensnmptree
tool is already part of the bootstrap-tools set, and is correctly
bootstrapped (built, installed into a temporary place, and used)
when/if needed

: .if ${BOOTSTRAPPING} < 700015
: _gensnmptree=   usr.sbin/bsnmpd/gensnmptree
: .endif

... as determined by a value of __FreeBSD_version from the
installed copy of /usr/include/osreldate.h.  It's possible to
fool the build system into thinking that you have a different
(e.g., more recent) version of FreeBSD installed by doing
partial installs (when osreldate.h doesn't match the installed
version) which is not uncommon on developers' machines.  :-)
In that case, it's possible to work around this by telling
the build system you have a "very old" environment, like this:

make buildworld OSRELDATE=0

I'd like to see this note removed, or more details to be
provided that we could identify a real problem (e.g., if
more incompatible changes were made to gensnmptree after
700015).
