Weird little problem here...

I've got a 7.1-RELEASE box I'm trying to get to 8.1-RELEASE. I was
able to do 'freebsd-update -install' and get the security patches and
all, but 'freebsd-update -r  8.1-RELEASE upgrade' fails - see output
below. Can anyone point me in the right direction to start
troubleshooting this? I don't see anything in /var/log/messages.
