Python27 package build failure - missing NIS library

[Dewayne]

Unfortunately my FreeBSD 8.1Stable systems are built without NIS, using 
/etc/src.conf
WITHOUT_NIS=yes

During a package build, I receive the failure message:
tar: lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/nis.so: Cannot stat: No such file or
directory

May I suggest the following patch to address this error:

Interestingly when I "make clean deinstall" the file
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/nis_failed.so remains?  It is the only
file that does remain.

Thank-you for managing this port, I hope that you will accept this change.

Kind regards, Dewayne
