Unfortunately, it looks like there is a bootstrap problem upgrade to 
HEAD from prior to this commit:

http://gitweb.dragonflybsd.org/dragonfly.git/commit/4afad3d8f675d4c7d767e86520a3c2eda3d56658
m4: Sync with FreeBSD.

An upgrade may require first upgrading to this commit (or later up to 
but not including f506e60df4a2ee3cc470ddcbad8a149f756bec0f )

After that, it should be possible to build world to HEAD.
In the meantime I'll see if something can be done.
