Sorry, I just tried the patch and I'm getting the same error as Matthieu:

configure: WARNING: liveMedia is missing or its installed version is too
old:
Version 2011.12.23 or later is required to proceed.

The version in ports is 2011.06.16, which does indeed seem older than
2011.12.23. nork, any chance of an upgrade?
