This will be fixed in 3.17.6.

In the meantime a workaround is to also use the -t flag.

As for poudriere, where it places its ports tree is really no 
different than you keeping it in your jail now. It does not have to be 
in /usr/ports. By default it will use 
/usr/local/poudriere/ports/default/.


I do highly recommend poudriere. Building ports on a live system is 
dangerous as it can leave things broken for long periods of time. 
Portmaster is even worse as it will uninstall ports for very long 
periods of time while upgrading dependencies. Portupgrade handles this 
situation much better, but of course has all of its own cons.




The -g bug is now fixed in the released 3.17.6.

It was due to a change in the ports framework, that I plan to rework a 
bit. For now I've put a workaround into portmaster.

Given the case you use portmaster + pkgng, than package building is not

This worked the last time I rebuilt everything from scratch (December 19,2013): 
portmaster 3.17.3.
I have built packages that way since but didn't build Xorg so I'm not sure that 
everything was still working right after that.

In case it matters, I am running amd64 9-stable (now showing as 9.3-beta1).
