    Try installing gmake and run "gmake install" instead of the
    FreeBSD make.

    That is a problem with an uninitialized SHELL variable in
    xmlwf/Makefile. However, we have since moved to a single,
    top-level Makefile, and that contains a proper SHELL. All
    should be fine in the upcoming release.

    Closing as fixed.
