This reminds me of: https://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals/CrossBuildableBase To successfully rebootstrap, a set of core packages all must be able to build, their build-depends must be installable, and (IIRC) sometimes must have the same binNMU version. Npt being able to re-bootstrap a port is probably an indication its toolchain is in bad shape, so this is probably where porters need to be more active. I would like to think kfreebsd toolchain has improved a bit since I started working in that area, and the feedback I get from Helmut when things break is incredible helpful.
