This can be painful, especially when builds are set to 'auto'...  You could 
either edit the Makefile to remove the requirement (and hope it does not mess 
up you computer) or you could compile it using a non root account.  

The easiest way to do this is:
o) Create a user account that is in the wheel group
# su ``user in wheel group''
# cd /usr/ports/databases/firebird2-client
# make install clean WRKDIRPREFIX=/tmp
# exit

Ports automatically uses su if the user is not root and thus will allow you to 
install the problem without too much complication.  Normally the default 
location for building ports are not writable by non root accounts so you need 
to change the building location (via WRKDIRPREFIX)
