I saw the same error while installing PHP, but then I understood that this is not a problem with freebsd ports.

What I did next was: “pkg_info | grep php”
There was php5-5.1.6_3 package already, so I did “pkg_delete php5-5.1.6_3″ and started “make install clean” in the ports folder. The port was installed smoothly.

Thanks. I needed this tip. Here is a small improvement:

setenv PHP_AUTOCONF autoconf
setenv PHP_AUTOHEADER autoheader

Thank you! I just want to know, who pressed the wrong button for the port?!
