The WITH_META_MODE build is intended to be a working incremental build. It spies on the build command to see if things should be rebuilt if the command changes. If you run buildworld, it builds a cross-compiler, then do installworld and buildworld again it will invoke the WITH_SYSTEM_COMPILER logic. This then adds on -target/--sysroot, etc, and causes rebuilds due to the changed build command even though the compiler used is technically the same revision. Since the incremental build is not cleaning anything by default then there is much less risk to rebuilding the already-existing cross-compiler. Just disable the combined logic and always use and build the cross-compiler. An alternative to this would be to always pass -target/--sysroot. Doing so may occur in the future.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7) and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the `buildkernel` and `installkernel` targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds. NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used.
