Try installing GD on it's own first - uninstalling first if it's already
installed.  If that doesn't work it's probably worth checking to see if
someone else has submitted a PR for this problem here:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr-summary.cgi

Perhaps submit your own PR report if you're sure it's a bug - you'd
probably want to try reproducing the error on a different machine first
though.

Good luck :P
