In both cases you've got the message

 > "/usr/src/sys/conf/kmod.mk", line 76: Could not find bsd.compiler.mk

(or equivalent as /sys -> usr/src)

I've looked at my version of the file (under REL-9.0) and there's no 
mention of bsd.compiler.mk (or ${COMPILER_TYPE}). Please show us what 
you get if you type "uname -a" so we know what you've installed.
