It looks like you're trying to do a parallel make (make -jN). We have
some known problems in this area. I'm not sure exactly where the -j
flag would be coming from, but I'm fairly sure it's not the default.
Check your /etc/make.conf.
The port should probably turn off -j if it finds it.
Cheers,
Simon
