Why do you think that??  The port builds using gmake and autoconf.  Any
in-FreeBSD-tree bits build with Bmake and w/o autoconf.  Also the port
has none of the FreeBSD specific changes.  If the ports was in the
perfect shape, why do you think the in-tree gnu tar hasn't been upgraded
yet?  Please look at the diffs in /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/tar
