I'm not sure what to do here.  I think this is a build environment  
failure in the ports cluster, but I don't have an amd64 machine to  
test it on.  The failure isn't actually in the build, it's in the  
regression tests, and it fails simply running /usr/bin/uptime:

Could this just be a mis-configuration of the jail or chroot the  
build runs in?
