It can be a problem if you're using an older FreeBSD version.  All of
those listed ports are currently compiling cleanly on 4.6-PRERELEASE.
You might like to use the precompiled packages if you're still having
problems.  Since you didn't post the build errors it's hard to
diagnose why you're seeing problems though.
