I don't know FreeBSD that well but I'd guess there's no group called
root and that's what's causing the error. Assuming that is the case, I
don't know how you'd fix it programmatically (there's probably an option
to configure that will do it) but you could manually change the line

INIT_OPTS=-o root -g root

in the Makefile to something more appropriate.
