The problem with upgrading to 6.3 is that it's development, and while
it might be stable it isn't generally good practice to upgrade a
production release port to a development set of code. Also, with it
being development the tarball can be rerolled causing the port not to
build as well, it's quite possible that that tarball is being built
nightly.
The fix to the port is going to be, apply the patch from:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=full-disclosure&m=110600949323439 and
bumping the port revision. As soon as 6.3 has been released it will be
upgraded too.
I will try to get it patched to use the above patch within the next day
or so, but I'm on a couple of deadlines at the moment.
Thanks,
Chris.
