VirtualBox won't build from ports

Hi,

I find it a little odd that a clean install of FreeBSD 11.0 on amd64 
followed by:

portsnap fetch ; portsnap extract
echo "DISABLE_LICENSES=yes" > /etc/make.conf
echo "BATCH=yes" >> /etc/make.conf
cd /usr/ports/emulators/virtualbox-ose
make install clean

fails. What's the recommended (and non-embarrassing) way to set up a clean 
FreeBSD installation with VirtualBox?

Here's the error:

...
/bin/ln -sf python-2.7.pc 
/usr/ports/lang/python3/work/stage/usr/local/libdata/pkgconfig/python2.pc
====> Compressing man pages (compress-man)

pkg-static: python3-2_3 conflicts with python2-2_3 (installs files into 
the same place).  Problematic file: /usr/local/bin/2to3-2

Thanks,
