 What do you mean with "the build doesn't actually fail"?
 
 cd /usr/ports/graphics/bmeps/
 make
 
 fails (on 9.0-RELEASE/amd64 with current ports tree and databases/gdbm 
 installed) with the error message you got, too, and additionally this:
 
 ===>  Script "configure" failed unexpectedly.
 Please report the problem to rfarmer@predatorlabs.net [maintainer] and 
 attach
 the "/usr/ports/graphics/bmeps/work/dktools-2.2.22/config.log" including the
 output of the failure of your make command. Also, it might be a good idea to
 provide an overview of all packages installed on your system (e.g. an `ls
 /var/db/pkg`).
 *** Error code 1
 
 Stop in /usr/ports/graphics/bmeps.
 
 I do not know how to ignore this. Tools dealing with ports consider this 
 a build failure.
 
 Yes, I can got to work/dktools-2.2.22/ and run make successfully, but 
 this is not how ports are supposed to be used.
 
 Since you say that bmeps does not actually use databases, my patch will 
 do not harm, but fix the build (of the port).
 
 Have I misunderstood you?
 
 Cheers,
 Jan Henrik
