This sounds like similair to pkg/29789 (fixed by jmmv changing how XMLCATMGR is defined)

The root of the problem being that when NO_BUILD is set, bsd.wrapper.mk doesn't include bsd.buildlink3.mk.  Which causes buildlink3 logic not to be run, and so some of the buildlink3 variables, and dependancies get missed.  XMLCATMGR was defined using one of these variables, so didn't get set correctly.

I'm not sure what the right fix is for this (and there maybe other places that are breaking because of it...)
