It looks like I was able to build this version of chromium last night
on my build server I use for pkgng packages:

> pkg info chromium
chromium-27.0.1453.81          Mostly BSD-licensed web browser based
on WebKit and Gtk+


I am running this build now (to compose this email actually) - i can
try to dig up some build logs if that would be helpful.  i don't have
any special build arguments for this port.  here's the uname for this
build box:


[pete at ranch ~]$ uname -ar
FreeBSD ranch.nomadlogic.org 9.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE #0
r243825: Tue Dec  4 09:23:10 UTC 2012
root at farrell.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64
