I suspect some bad .depend files or misconfigure obj/ directories.
If your hierarchy falls under /usr.  Try:

rm -rf /usr/obj
find /usr/src -type d obj | xargs rm -rf
cd /usr/src
[sup or cvsup or ctm update source tree]
make world

You should be able to 
make cleandir && objdir
for the first two steps above.
