Yeah:
20020404:
Due to the import of sendmail 8.12.2 (see 20020325 entry), a new
user and group are required in order for sendmail to run as a
set-group-ID binary. A 'make installworld' will use the new user
and group to set the owner and group of /var/spool/clientmqueue
and will fail if the new user and group do not exist. The 'smmsp'
user and group must be merged from src/etc/group and
src/etc/master.passwd before using 'make installworld'.
But I don't want Sendmail and a user account that presumably won't be
used?

Yiz. It's actually failing at 'make installworld' and not 'buildworld'
sorry.
