Don't know about the build problem but if you want the latest packages 
set PACKAGESITE in make.conf

eg from memory (on another machine I don't have access to)

PACKAGESITE=ftp://ftp.uk.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6-stable/Latest/
I can't remember if you need the / on the end, it either works with but 
not without or vice versa


This works in 6, I presume it works in 5.4. It's mentioned in pkg_add(1)
