Comment(by pgj):

 I think this a very special concurrency bug that can be only produced on
 really fast systems.  I could not do that with my own machines, but this
 indeed caused problems at the FreeBSD package building cluster [1] so it
 has been patched for the corresponding port in the Ports Collection.

 But let me know if you have any recommendations on how to solve this.
