Thanks for the hint. Actually, you don't need such a drastic measure, it 
seems.

I looked into the Makefile and found:

.if (defined(WITH_DIRAC) || exists(${LOCALBASE}/lib/libdirac_decoder.a)) && 
!defined(WITHOUT_DIRAC)
BROKEN=         doesn't build with dirac

I did a 

# make  -DWITHOUT_DIRAC 

and it seems to be building.

As I type this I see confirmation of the solution above from Warren Block 
(Thanks!)
