Janos,

now that makes me scratch my head a bit, because I have built it on
redports successfully, but I also see that it is just using the bare
"strip" command, not one qualified with path.

<https://redports.org/~mandree/20140905211100-64558-241129/ntop-5.0.1_9.log>

Can you try something?

In the port's Makefile, add

CONFIGURE_ARGS+=        STRIP=${LOCALBASE}/bin/strip

right underneath the USE_BINUTILS= yes line.

Let me know if that works.  I have also committed this as r367688, so it
should be available through portsnap and SVN mirrors soon.

You can see that you have it from the $FreeBSD: line,
it should now read

     $FreeBSD: head/net/ntop/Makefile 367688 2014-09-08 19:52:22Z mandree $

If it still fails, please post the build log and your /etc/src.conf and
/etc/make.conf.

Thanks for your indulgence.

Best regards,
Matthias
