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.
