I've started an experiment going another direction: an armv7
context with lots of RAM (and faster processing) with a
13 attempting to build a stable/12 . It is via a chroot into
an armv7 13 world on a 8 GiByte, 4-core Cortex-A57 based
OverDrive 1000 running aarch64 13. Each process should still
be limited to what 32-bit systems allow but overall the
system is not that limited. I used -j4 .

If such still got the error, then there would likely be
implications about the error and it would be unlikely
that it would work on the RPi2 v1.1 . (But I expect that
it will not get the error.)

Root owns file system involved and is doing the build.

It did report:

make[1]: "/usr/fbsd/stable-12-src/Makefile.inc1" line 344: SYSTEM_COMPILER: libclang will be built for bootstrapping a cross-compiler.
make[1]: "/usr/fbsd/stable-12-src/Makefile.inc1" line 349: SYSTEM_LINKER: libclang will be built for bootstrapping a cross-linker.

I already had a stable-12-src branch from git experiments
but the matching worktree was missing despite being still
registered. So the worktree recreation was:

# git worktree add -f ../stable-12-src stable-12-src
Preparing worktree (checking out 'stable-12-src')
Updating files: 100% (81363/81363), done.
HEAD is now at f4d0bc6aa6b9 MFC r354991-r354992 (by lwhsu)
