Linux emulation port install failure.

[Rob Andrews]

I've been running into a problem with installing the linux base port for 
FreeBSD 4.8.

The box was originally a 4.7-release install and the linux emulation port 
was installed
with sysinstall during the initial configuration of the machine.  I have 
since attempted
to completely deinstall and by hand removed the /compat/linux directory tree.

The package installs correctly if I use sysinstall.  It fails when I try to 
upgrade it via
the port.  Linux binaries do not run correctly unless I brandelf 
them.  This includes
the bins installed from the package.

This is the error I get when attempting to install the port:

Does anyone have any information which could help me to fix this problem?
