problems installing Subversion and Autoconf on freeBSD

So I'm trying to install the freeBSD subversion port and I get an error when
it tries to install autoconf. If I cd into /ports/devel/autoconf261 and try
to install directly from there I get the same thing. Here's where the
problems seem to begin:

Doesn't sound like there's a Subversion question here. You should ask  
the maintainers of the FreeBSD subversion port why it depends on  
autoconf (the subversion port in MacPorts, for example, does not),  
and/or you should ask the developers of autoconf why it's having  
trouble installing.
