Hi Paul,

Without having looking at the port at all, it sounds like that's an
option that needs to be passed to the configure phase.  If so, you add
this to the port Makefile:

CONFIGURE_ARGS+=	--skip-validation

Alternately, you could add something similar to /etc/make.conf,
wrapped with a check for the proper port directory.

Then the question is whether this is a bug in the port as it stands or
a problem in your local environment that requires this option to be
enabled.

Hope that helps,
Greg
