erlang doesn't build on 7.0?

I just tried to install the lang/erlang port on my freebsd 7.0 box. It
failed with a linker error while building the "beam" binary.
cc -o path/to/beam \
-L/usr/local/lib -Wl,-export-dynamic \
... lots of .o files ... \
-lethread -lpthread -lerts_internal_r
/usr/lib/libpthread.a(thr_sig.o)(.text+0x1c0): In function `_sigaction':
: multiple definition of `_sigaction'
obj/i386-unknown-freebsd7.0/opt/plain/hipe_x86_signal.o(.text+0x0): first defined here
/usr/bin/ld: Warning: size of symbol `_sigaction' changed from 155 in obj/i386-unknown-freebsd7.0/opt/plain/hipe_x86_signal.o to 55 in /usr/lib/libpthread.a(thr_sig.o)
So, hipe_x86_signal.c is redefining sigaction(). I looked briefly at
this file, and it *appears* that this should only happen for glibc-based
compiles or solaris builds, but the ifdef nest is somewhat complicated,
so I'm by no means sure.
After figuring out how to add --disable-hipe to the configure arguments,
"make build" completes successfully.
Am I missing something obvious here? Should I have been able to build
with the hipe extensions or is this an error in the port makefiles?
Dale.
