Why is the build so fragile?

[Jens Schweikhardt]

Martin et al,

in the last days I tried several times to compile
editors/openoffice-1.1, but failed. I've tried it on 5.1 and 5-Current
as of a few days ago with an up-to-date ports tree. I've googled around
and found other people where the build stopped at the exact same place,
namely when compiling mozilla, due to include files not being found.
Unfortunately none of your suggestions like not using CFLAGS in
/etc/make.conf works. The build is started with a plain 'make' without
any options.

The last lines in my logs are:

How do you compile this beast at all? Here are the dependencies as found
on my system with make clean. Is there anything bogus here?
