It's a known problem.
Use mail/postfix-policyd-spf instead of SPF patch.
Probably be good if the SPF option wasn't available in mail/postfix then :)
Ironically, I don't need the SPF patch because I do SPF lookups, amongst many
other things, in a home spun policy daemon. But including it caused spawn to
fail meaning I couldn't run that policy daemon.

Is this likely to be the case if I installed from the port? If so,
how do I get
around it? And any suggestions about spawn?
Thanks
It doesn't seem likely to me that this is the problem,
To me either. I ran into a problem a while back with Postfix, and
that's the same answer they gave me. It turned out to be a problem
with SPF. Once I deselected that, postfix compiled fine.
Ah, I think they are connected. I had a response off list that suggested
adding -DPREPEND_PLUS_TO_OPTSTRING to MAKEFILEFLAGS in the postfix
makefile. A google on this led me to a suggestion from Wietse that this
hack is unnecessary and "Perhaps you linked Postfix with some
third-party library (SSL? SASL? SQL?) that includes its own
brain-damaged getopt() routine."
Digging a bit deeper, I spotted a suggestion that SPF might be that
third-party library, so recompiled without that option and bingo! It all
works again.
