I'm running -current on an i386 with an up to date pkgsrc.
I have some strange errors when building large packages.
Here is an example:

It seems to be a problem during the configuration.
Now, if I make && make install directly in /usr/pkgsrc/textproc/subtitleripper
everything is fine and I'm able to continue the building of dvdrip.

I had to do this several times for building kde.

Any idea about what's going on?

Thierry.
