lang/guile build fails for me

BTW, I think that CONFIGURE_ENV in the port's Makefile better be set with +=, for
safety.

Looks like LDFLAGS are lost from the environment before configure is run:
ac_cv_env_LDFLAGS_set=set
ac_cv_env_LDFLAGS_value=' -rpath=/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib'

And given the USE_NCURSES workaround posted in this thread, that takes to
Mk/bsd.ncurses.mk where we have:
...
NCURSES_LDFLAGS+=       -rpath=${NCURSESRPATH}

.if defined(LDFLAGS)
LDFLAGS+=${NCURSES_LDFLAGS}
.else
LDFLAGS=${NCURSES_LDFLAGS}
.endif

CONFIGURE_ENV+=         LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS}"
...

I think that the above line overrides whatever is set in the port's Makefile.
