I've done all of what you mentioned (cvsup'ed, #NO_PERL in /etc/make.conf, adjusted system date/time) but 'make installworld' still failed at the same spot. So I edited /etc/make.conf and uncomment the NO_PERL line and 'make install' again, obviously this time it's going to work - no perl involved. After that, I re-commented out NO_PERL line and 'make installworld' again, this time it magically finished the whole install process! I don't know what happened, must be one of those weird things happenning on Monday :-) Anyway, I'll re-buildworld and re-installworld again to see if it still works.
