 No, it's not a problem anymore.
 I was finally able to get it to build by blowing away various libraries and
 such that had been installed from ports over the past 2 years, then doing a
 clean install. I guess things are much more orderly now than they were back
 in 4.0 and 4.1 days, but I still had a lot of cruft on my system.
 
 Thanks again for your help. You can close the ticket.
 
 The lesson here, I guess, is that the scripts need to be smarter for
 handling legacy installs, but this may not be a worthwhile place to put in
 energy.
