Thanks for the report. I have run a job through the portstree to build all
readme's and found several ports that are affected by this issue and
submitted problem reports for them.

All ports that broke redefined ${ECHO_MSG} which had issues with a target in
bsd.port.mk. The affected target was: pretty-print-www-site

Thanks!
