    You are misuising the system. What's your $PWD in the dir where
    you run make config? It should be /usr/ports/<category>/<port>/,
    *not* /usr/ports/<category>/<port>/work/<whatever>/!

    Oh, and BTW, the error message you got was most probably caused
    by your $PWD being in a directory that has been rm'd from under
    your feet and then recreated.
