Thanks for the reply.  This knowledge is not all that useful.  The process of
making this port will, of course, make all dependencies of this port.  By not
finding that item forces the installation of www/webkit-gtk2 below.  This is
not an error.

The port maintainers are responsible for assuring the compiler matches the
code, and that the code compiles with that compiler.  This is clearly an
error, but one that I have no idea how to fix.

Not so sure about that.  But again, how is this (and other errors) to be
fixed?  Why don't the port maintainers respond to this thread?

Again, not so sure about that.

Again, thanks for the reply, but it doesn't get me all that much closer
to getting this port built.  Anyone else have any ideas or pointers?
