If you have recently been working on upgrading your system in any way I
would check the perms on all the directories in /var and possibly other
systems as can be advised in a upgrade procedure within the handbook.
You may also attempt the following which may fix it but it comes with a
disclaimer and you should know how to fix it if it breaks.
mtree -deU -f /etc/mtree/BSD.var.dist
Before doing the above, I would seriously ask myself... What did I do in
those last few days or week or so... and at least attempt to backtrack
to a conclusive result.
Good luck.
