Hmm, it's possible that port is doing something jail-unfriendly.
e.g. one of these commands could be the cause of the error:

SIZE!=          /bin/df -k . | ${TAIL} -n 1 | ${AWK} '{print $$4}'
LINPROCFS!=     /sbin/mount | /usr/bin/grep ^linprocfs | ${AWK} '{print $1}'
PROCFS!=        /sbin/mount | /usr/bin/grep ^procfs | ${AWK} '{print $1}'

Do you have a full FreeBSD install in your jail, or are some of the
above binaries missing?
