--- Comment #3 from Mark Millard <markmi at dsl-only.net> ---
man ports reports that:

MAKE VARIABLES
. . .
     WITH_DEBUG                    (bool) If set, debugging symbols are
                                   installed for ports binaries.

Thuis my WITH_DEBUG= use was realistic by FreeBSD rules.

So it appears to me that its attempting to build debug/libWebCore.a instead (or
in addition) is a conflicting use of WITH_DEBUG , especially since it fails and
blocks the build. It would seem that for FreeBSD to have its WITH_DEBUG
convention for ports, an alternate name for the alternate use would need to be
used by the specific port.

Also even if having -g with release builds makes a release/libWebCore.a
completely this report is still valid because any deliberately attempted build
of debug/libWebCore.a would fail as my accidental WITH_DEBUG use did.
