Just an fyi, the ffmpeg port is not building propery for two possible 
reasons.  First, several of the html documents are not found and make 
dies.  Second, if you ran the install once and it failed, it created a 
symlink in /usr/local/lib/ for a libavacodec.so (or something like that).

So to get it to install, comment out the doc portion of the make file and 
remove that symlink before doing make install.

You will get no man pages and a waring about it but it will install the 
port.

Also, mpeg4ip port was causing me problems because it required a newer 
build of autoconf/automake.  I deinstalled all versions and found autoconf 
2.53 still in /usr/local/bin.  After installing 259 and moving the 
previous versions files, mpeg4ip built fine.
