 Thanks! I can't reproduce your problem. But only thing that I did  
 different from your is disable HELPBROWSER and it shouldn't be make any  
 difference as it's only for help browser. I have installed gimp-app today.

 # pkg_info -IX gimp
 gimp-app-2.6.1_3,1  A GNU Image Manipulation Program

 It does matter, because URI can be more than just entry URL like samba URI  
 and etc tha way we can location what problem. ;-) I think I might have a  
 good idea what your problem is. Do you have ftp/curl installed by any  
 chance? If no then can you install curl and reinstall gimp-app to see if  
 it will helping with your issue? I have curl installed here in my system  
 and I noticed that gimp will find curl by autocheck then use it. I will  
 add ftp/curl dependency in graphics/gimp-app by default with maybe provide  
 optional to turn off.
 
 Cheers,
