I'm not sure about that.  The no-error stuff I believe is a CURRENT thing,
at least when running betas and stuff you'll run into the warnings as errors
thing.  The port builds fine on other branches and I suspect would continue
to build on CURRENT if you got rid of whatever controlling the compile
setting.  Nevertheless, it seems the port should be fixed to use sys/time.h
and gettimeofday(2) instead.  Just the way it looks to me, I'm no expert
here.
