You need to drop a bit further into the build, where it starts resolving
dependencies.  Try doing 'make extract', although I know there are some
other dependencies picked up in the install phase.

Optionally, you can 'make fetch' the required packages by looking at the
kde11 Makefile and looking for the *_DEPENDS lines.  It will want any
ports listed there.
