You can solve this by installing the pre-built packages for
compatibility libraries:

    ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/packages/misc/compat4x-i386-5.3_4.tbz
    ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/packages/misc/compat5x-i386-5.4.0.8_2.tbz

Then you don't have to compile anything from source.
