I enabled this in a last ditch effort to get around the problem.  It
instructs dependencies to rebuild even if the ports tree thinks it is
not necessary.  From what I gather it only adds additional time when
rebuilding the port.

The problem occurs regardless of if this is defined or not.   The
script being used is:

http://cvs.pfsense.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/tools/pfPorts/Makefile.RELENG_1?rev=1.66;content-type=text%2Fplain

Don't let the filename fool you, its a simple shell script that was
originally a sub-port make file quite a while back and we have not
repo moved the file to reflect its new purpose.

I did notice something else odd, even after the cd command fails, the
port starts back over and somehow it finishes building which seems a
bit strange (regardless if ALWAYS_BUILD_DEPENDS is defined).
