Poco is failing very early on FreeBSD with a strange error (nothing
else in the log file apart from echoed commands):

.../tmp-poco/poco-1.4.3p1/build/rules/global:62: *** Current working
directory not under $PROJECT_BASE.  Stop.

that seems to be related to the re-ordering of definitions in the
Makefile [1]. Invoking make like this:

gmake poco PWD=`pwd`

or moving the

PWD        := $(shell pwd)

to be above the

SHELL      := bash

line again allows it to build successfully, but I'm not entirely sure why.

Cheers,

Tony
