I have only used the ports, and always installed them to the default directory. I did not mean that this was a OS bug, and it would be really strange if it was since I can't find any other person that has had the same problem. There must be an application that overwrote my err.h. I've tried to provoke this error again, but I can't. I tried to install all the ports on another server (until i ran out of space), but the error did not occur. But with that said, there was 20 ports I didn't have enough space to install, so the problem might lie there. I might be the problem as well, maybe I did something I shouldn't have done. But I can't really see what that should be :) Anyway, the solution is here and I hope it can help other people that end up with the same problem (if that ever happens).
