Ok, so this broke the build only on 3.8. > We had to bump all versions of c++ shared libs in the ports tree, > because of a change in the base system. > > A new framework to control shared libs got introduced in the -current > ports tree.

FWIW, changing the '16' in the Makefile back to '15' made the port compile, but I'll have to see if it also works. Best, --Toni++
