 It is ports policy to try and upstream patches so that 3rd party software
 compiles outside ports OK, however that is not always possible for a variety
 of reasons, largely outside our control.
 
 We also have no way of knowing what interaction your customisation is having
 on the build, or other things on your system, if you are not using ports.
 It is impossible to say if one of those is causing your problem or not.  That
 is why we have the ports tree there.  If you are not using ports, then
 please try one of the mailing lists to see if someone can help you, however
 it is not a FreeBSD bug
