No luck; downloading -current from CVS gives the same error (just a different line), on ANY port, sys, or any other location:
Makefile:36: *** missing separator. Stop. line 36, in this case, says: .include <bsd.own.mk> "bsd.own.mk" remains untouched since installation. Same as before; OpenBSD 4.7-release, amd64.
