Thanks for the update, I had the feeling the issue was from it being
to old. I have a question, not sure if you know, but I will toss it
out. As I mentioned I update using svn for both src and ports, and I
am curious to know if I can actually bring my src tree up to the most
current 10.x stable, recompile, and install and have it all run?
In the past with much older versions, I know file system changes and
such make it pretty hard to jump major revisions, so have a little bit
of fear about jumping from 9.x to 10.x, and possibly even to 11.x if
that is now stable. I am using ZFS, so I guess that would be one thing
that is outside the norm, but should be part of the base kernels now anyway.
Any input on upgrading would be most appreciated...

There are 3 options . One upgrade to 10.x or 11.x and ports/pkg will work .
Support for the 9 series and 10.1 and 10.2 was removed from ports a few months
ago . Two check out ports via svn and use the tag RELEASE_9_EOL and use that as
your starting point . This is ports before the support for 9 was dropped . It's
not up to date but it will work .Lastly you could use pkgsrc from netbsd not
Joynet , and do a full rebuild of what you need . Pkgsrc also has a pkgsrc to
ports conversion tool if you want the subsequent pkgsrc packages registered in
a FreeBSD standard pkg dir . This would work if you haven't converted 9 to use
pkgng .

I know 9.3 is kinda dated, but it had been running fine so I left the servers
alone as they were in a remote location many hours away.
That said, if I try and do anything with ports (I keep everything updated using
SVN), I get the following error:
"/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk", line 1038: Unknown directive
The line is: .export LANG LC_ALL
I even tried removing the ports tree, and bringing it all back down, but same
error. Maybe my googlefu is failing me, but I couldn't find this exact error
listed anyplace. I have a couple FBSD 9.3 machines still in existence, and
they all do this with anything in ports now.
Any ideas or suggestions? Would just taking SVN to the current 10.x fix this?
