Well, you didn't quite follow my instructions, but you showed enough
to see that something is quite odd on your system:

----
srcdir="/usr/ports/gcc-4.1.1/fixincludes" /bin/sh /usr/ports/gcc-4.1.1/fixincludes/mkfixinc.sh
+i386-unknown-freebsd6.1
sed -e 's/@gcc_version@//' <  > mkheadersT
*** Error code 2

Stop in /usr/ports/objdir/build-i386-unknown-freebsd6.1/fixincludes.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/objdir.
----

Those directories are completely non-standard.  How did you install
your ports collection?  The gcc41 port is supposed to be in
/usr/ports/lang/gcc41, not /usr/ports/gcc-4.1.1.  Are you really using
the ports collection or did you just download the gcc source code
directly?
