confused build_depends

# cd /usr/ports/net/wireshark
# make -VBUILD_DEPENDS
/usr/local/lib/libcrypto.so.8:/usr/ports/cad/linux-eagle5 ...

Well, eagle5 does not install the file libcrypto.so.8, thus it
doesn't exist and the ports system will try to install linux-eagle5
when building wireshark. Of course linux-eagle5 is already installed,
thus it will fail.

If I remove linux-eagle5 the dependency works:
# make -VBUILD_DEPENDS
/usr/local/lib/libcrypto.so.7:/usr/ports/security/openssl ...

But why does the ports system think linux-eagle installs this library?
# pkg_info -Lx eagle|grep crypto
/compat/linux/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8

The file is a symlink and has a distinctively different version
number.
