Thanks Shane. I actually enabled the option in graphics/gd and it was 
working fine. It only broke after an update the the ports tree. I had it 
enabled in many other packages so didn't think it might be a problem. 
Disabling the option makes the error go away and poudriere now is able 
to compile gd. I didn't know a maintainer can mark a port as broken only 
if a particular option is enabled, I thought that the whole port is 
either marked as broken or not.
