Unable to install cups port on FreeBSD6.2 - error message:

 Any ideas? I'm completely lost at this point.

I have tried portsnap fetch; portsnap extract and then

make install clean. Result is the same only there are a few extra lines to the errors.

It looks like a porting problem to me; all else seems to work and install fairly normally.

I have manged to install and configure cups several times before on other versions of FreeBSD.
Any suggestions? or solutions?
