Unfortunately, it doesn't build. It appears to build, but if you look back at the log, it's filled with errors that were silently ignored. As such, nothing builds that can be installed. I'm not going to post the log since it's pretty easy to build it. The only dependency, gmake-3.79.1_2, is up to date on my machine, and my world was built and installed about 2 weeks ago. **Warning, rant** The ports collection is one of the crown jewels of FreeBSD. Unfortunately, even as more ports committers are added, more and more ports break or become harder to build. On top of that, pkg_add has become close to worthless now that the -r feature is so fragile. If 5.0 goes out and popular ports don't build, it will hurt the image of FreeBSD. Please, take a break from adding new ports and/or maintaining your pet ports and fix some of the broken-ness.
