Yes. Replace the variable

     ${CONFIGURE_TARGET}

in line 50 of ports/devel/root/Makefile with

     freebsd5

This is Root's architecture ID to compile on BSD 5.x and 6.x.

It seams that basically this problem occurs since 6.0.
So it might be a good idea to patch the current port.
However I want to update to a new Root version anyhow, but
up to now I found no time to do it ...

Cheers,

Simon
