Your failed-make file shows 2 problems. It wants libglut-7.3_1 and in the 
process of building it. It found that your version of libdrm is out of date.

checking for LIBDRM... configure: error: Package requirements (libdrm >= 
2.4.3) were not met:

Requested 'libdrm >= 2.4.3' but version of libdrm is 2.3.0
 
Make found that your libdrm is too old and quit. FWIW, the current version of 
libdrm is 2.4.4. Your port tree needs to be updated. Libdrm was updated to 
2.4.3 on 23 January 2009. When you saw this problem, you should have 
immediately updated your port tree. I use cvsup, make my INDEX-*, and then 
use portupgrade to keep everything current. I don't know how you are 
maintaining your ports but it didn't work in this instance.
