There's a git repository. It's public. You can look at what goes into
the FreeBSD git clone to get your assurance that things aren't being

I recently had to re-install FreeBSD on my system. I installed
FreeBSD-8.3-i386 and successfully managed to install all ports except
one - the sysutils/coreutils port.
Underneath is the error I get :
