Dear list

I have upgraded the ports tree on our FreeBSD 4.5 box this morning in
preparation to install MySQL.

Running "make fetch" in the databases/mysql5-server directory gives the
following error and then stops.

"Makefile", line 156: Malformed conditional (exists(${DB_DIR}) &&
defined(OVERWRITE_DB) && ${OVERWRITE_DB:L} != "no")
"Makefile", line 159: Malformed conditional (!exists(${DB_DIR}) ||
(defined(OVERWRITE_DB) && ${OVERWRITE_DB:L} != "no"))
"Makefile", line 167: if-less endif
"Makefile", line 167: Need an operator
"Makefile", line 181: if-less else
"Makefile", line 181: Need an operator
"Makefile", line 201: if-less endif
"Makefile", line 201: Need an operator
make: fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue

I have tried each of the MySQL server versions 4, 4.1 and 5 with each giving
similar errors (just different line numbers in the Makefile.)

Any ideas?
