Hi!

The issue is caused by the recent switch to the new rendering issue (the Aura frontend replaces the current GTK+ frontend which isn't GTK based anymore). For more details see [1].

If you want to build chromium port using GCC48, add the following lines in Makefile

USE_GCC= 4.8+

Add those lines after .include <bsd.port.pre.mk>
CHOOSEN_COMPILER_TYPE= gcc
COMPILER_TYPE= gcc
COMPILER_VERSION= 48
