 Have you tried either of these two options:
 
 	a) Install from the ports tree
 	b) Install the package
 
 If the ports tree supports software which you want to install, but you
 try to build it outside the ports mechanism, then you should contact the
 emacs people. :-)
 
 Let me know.
 
 Ciao,
 Sheldon.
