>Description:
On my machine, port graphviz-2.28.0 does not build:

No rule to make target `-lltdl', needed by `libgvc.la'. Stop.

This problem seems to be described in
http://www.graphviz.org/mantisbt/view.php?id=2109


>How-To-Repeat:
make
but see below.
Please drop me a note if you need more information specific from my system.
I assume that "normally" (whatever that means) graphviz builds without problems.

>Fix:
Fortunately, autotools and me never had any close relationship ;-)
So I do not claim to understand the problem or the fix.

However,  the fix described in the graphviz mantis page does the trick
if autoreconf is invoked before configure.

I added 

pre-configure:
  cd ${WRKSRC} && ${AUTORECONF}

to the port's Makefile

and added the patch file attached to this ticket.
