I first thought this was intltool-related, but afterwards I had lots
of other ports that ended in a loop during build of apsfilter.=20
Note: apsfilter with default options requires many other ports, of which
quite a lot also had this 'autoconf'-problem.
All these ports (see my original mail) did build correctly if they
were created directly (ie not as dependency) with
# cd /usr/ports/<category>/<port>
# make package
This was on 5.3-BETA4 (or 1-3 days later) with default install from
CD (BETA3) with only a few other ports and updated to BETA4.

Not necessary - even though the maintainer of intltool might have an =
idea
what is going on (I haven't).
