My guess is that your system is missing one of these
utilities.
Once you know which one, you can just use make install
to install
it by hand and then try an installworld.  Can you run
this at a
sh prompt and reply with the output?

for prog in [ awk cap_mkdb cat chflags chmod chown
date echo egrep find grep install-info  ln make mkdir
mtree mv pwd_mkdb rm sed sh sysctl  test true uname wc
zic; do echo "$prog ->" `which $prog`; done
