This is probably a -questions kinda topic, but:

If you've installed it before, you might have a previous build heirarchy.
Check for a "work" direcotry in the port/* directory you're trying to
'make' in.  You'll probably find a 'work/.build_done', easy thing is just
to 'make clean ; make' (or a few other ways too).

If that's not it, I'm sure more info is required.
