Ok, things are now getting less broken for me...

By chance is anyone having this problem on a box (like mine) that was 
upgraded from 6.2 to 7.0?  The gmake solution failed for me when it 
tried to build xmms along with mplayer, with a failure in a compat lib 
that looked like something that was a holdover from my 6.2 upgrade.  I 
thought I had  run portupgrade -fa when I updated this  box (a Gateway 
laptop) when RELENG-7 was first tagged (or branched) but, obviously, I 
missed something.

More building continues...
