Disable the DTRACE option, and try again.  See:

https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-pkg-fallout/Week-of-Mon-20170206/408053.html
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2017-February/107103.html
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2017-February/107138.html

and maybe even other threads.

Let's poke portmgr@ to just disable this option by default, until the port has been fixed.
