Before saying anything else, I should state that technical questions should
be sent to freebsd-questions at freebsd.org, which is the only official list 
for
such things.

I have no idea about the error your seeing; haven't seen that one yet... :)

However, is there any special reason you're not using the ports system?
Described here:
