 No - it looked like something wrong with the Makefile.in/configure as
 mine looked like this:
 
 INSTALL = /usr/bin/install -c -o bin -g bin
 INSTALL_PROGRAM = install -c -s -o bin -g bin -m 555
 INSTALL_DATA = ${INSTALL} -m 644
 INSTALL_SCRIPT = ${INSTALL_PROGRAM}
 
 I'm using a 2.2.5 box, and my version of bsd.port.mk looks like this:
 
 voodoo# ident /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk
 /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk:
      $NetBSD: $
      $Id: bsd.port.mk,v 1.227.2.27 1997/10/08 05:05:27 asami Exp $
 
 I'll try upgrading it to the latest 2.2-STABLE version and report back 
 on what happens.
