There's no autodetection of the used linux_base version. We have a
default linux_base and everything is supposed to work with only this
version. Everything else is pure luck (or good "upward-compatibility"
of the linux ports, but this isn't required).
If you want to use another linux_base, you have to use
OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT in make.conf.
Now that we talked about the current policy, the strange part above is,
that you have to specify v8 in the override. This is *very* strange.
Please make sure you have the latest /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk.

WITH_LINUX is wrong. It was usable for a moment in time, but is wasn't
done properly (since it changed the meaning of the former usage of it).
For this reason I introduced OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT. It's used like
you do it with WITH_LINUX.
Bye,
Alexander.
