Bundled LLD not found on nighlty on FreeBSD

After updating to the newest nightly I was not able to build project for thumbv7em-none-eabi
Downgrading to nightly toolchain from 2018-03-07 enables the building again.
After upgrading cargo and xargo, I was not able to build with any toolchain. The error message is:

error: intermittent IO error while iterating directory `/usr/home/johnny/.rustup/toolchains/nightly-x86_64-unknown-freebsd/lib/rustlib/x86_64-unknown-freebsd/bin`

Did you try to remove ~/.xargo?

[thefallenidealist]

Removing ~/.xargo has no effect.

[thefallenidealist]

Also, removing ~/.cargo and ~/.rustup and reinstalling all has no effect, the same error message is reported.

[thefallenidealist]

Workaround would be just to create missing folder with mkdir command and it will start working again.

Also, to update to newest nightly on FreeBSD:
remove ~/.cargo ~/.rustup and run script from https://rustup.rs/
