I just tried to do a portupgrade of libglut and it failed the first try 
because of a checksum error. So, I deleted the old 
MesaDemos-5.0.2.tar.bz2
distfile and tried again. This time it was able to build it. I kind of wonder 
if your port setup is out of date. It looks like MesaDemos was rerolled 
around 12 November.
