So was I, as there was no actual error in your log - and I see why now.
You are only redirecting standard output, not standard error, so the
error message as to why the build failed has been lost. In future do:

cd /usr/src
make buildworld 2>&1 | tee ./buildworld.txt | tail -n 20 | mail root &

and then at least we'd see the error.
