Your installed packages are messed up, or (less likely) a dependency
is missing in the port Makefile:

$ pkg_info -W /usr/local/bin/autom4te
/usr/local/bin/autom4te was installed by package autoconf-wrapper-20071109

Install autoconf, and things will magically work better.

My guess is that it will resolve your other issue as well.

It would be nice to know how things broke on your system, but my guess
(since I've done a number of installs post-8.x) is that it is due to
something in your environment being a bit wonky.

HTH,
