OK, now I'm confused. You were 100% right. I installed gmake, and it
works fine. The one thing I'm confused about though is that I've done
dozens of similar boxes.

FreeBSD 4.3 from CDROM. Use kern-developer as base. cvsup STABLE and
PORTS. Install bash2 and wget from ports. Install perl 5.6.1 from
source. make world.

Funny thing is that this box was giving me grief on the make world as
well. Now that gmake is installed, that has gone away as well. What I
don't understand is why gmake wasn't installed as part of my
kern-developer choice. 

Weird I tell you. Just weird. :) 

Thanks for the help!
