I believe SVN r367396 fixes the net/ntop build problem, at the price of
an additional requisite package, namely binutils, on 8.x releases
(or all versions before OSVERSION reached 900033, for that matter).

It also fixes a problem when trying to build WITH_SSP_PORTS=yes for
hardening.

Closes Bug #192047.  I am not bumping the portrevision because this
fixes build failures only.


Janos,

thank you for the report.  Try upgrading your ports tree a short while
after I've sent this message; the port is up to date if it uses .include
<bsd.port.post.mk> at its very end.

HTH
