If you have FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE, I suggest you upgrade to -stable. There
was a problem in the ELF loader which was fixed just after the release. If
you have a not-so-recent -stable, try defining NEEDLOADLINK. See the
Makefile for details.

If you update your ports collection, also update your system.

Let me know if your problems remain.
