I generally don't have problems with make in FreeBSD environments, but
often have tons of problems in others, like OpenSolaris,
buildroot/busybox, and so on. To solve this, I clean my environment by
using this shell script (called cleanenv):
#!/bin/sh
env -i PATH=/usr/bin:/bin TERM=${TERM} P4CONFIG=P4ENV $*
exit $?
or variants on this to run make (as in 'cleanenv make'). This tends to
try and limit the chaos from environment assumptions.
I don't think it is make's job, or the build tree's job, to enforce this
cleanliness- mostly because it's really hard to do. It's just a lot
easier to be a canonical simple 'user' when building.

i'd say no. imo nothing from /usr/local/* should ever be invoked when

a target in /usr/src. everything that's needed is in /usr/*
(excluding local).
so $PATH should unconditionally be set to sth. like:
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin;
to be sure no tools, libs or whatever from any foreign place such as
/usr/local/* get sucked into a build.
I'm not sure if you modified anything in your source tree, but my
/usr/src/Makefile has this line very close to the start of the file:
PATH= /sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
so what is the problem, exactly? :)
If you are building stuff by hand, you are outside regular territory
anyway, and you should simply pay attention to your PATH yourself.
