I ran into the same problem.  

The problem seems to occur in fixincludes which uses sed
(/usr/bin/sed) a lot.  Apparently there is either a bug in the shipped
version of sed, or a mismatch between what fixincludes asks of it and
what it thinks it means because the files produced by it are often
truncated early (it actually seems more like the last bufferfull is
not flushed).

At any rate, if you get gnu sed and place it in your path before
/usr/bin/sed, and redo the build, it should build with no further
problems.
