I have this tag also, as you know, in my /etc/src.conf. But: I do buildworld and
especially buildkernel with flag -DNO_CLEAN".

After I did a "make kernel" (in /usr/src) the proplem went away! I guess this has to do
with the fact that I played with different versions of nvidia's driver (355.11 - 361.18
with a new buildframework proposed at PR 201340
(https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=201340).
