Problems with 9.2-RC3

[Walter Hurry]

Running 9.2-RC4 in a VirtualBox VM, I am having a few problems.

FreeBSD freebsd.vm 9.2-RC3 FreeBSD 9.2-RC3 #1 r254965: Wed Aug 28 
04:17:40 BST 2013     root at freebsd.vm:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/VM4  amd64

At this stage I am reluctant to file PRs, as doubtless some of these are 
of my own making.

The first is that I cannot get port devel/xdg-utils to install. The error 
is:

*** [fake-pkg] Error code 74

What have I done wrong? It seems fine on 9.1 and 10.0.

Other issues will follow as separate threads.
