Odd, 'install' on Solaris has always* followed the s5 syntax.  Check
the output of your 'make' - it does recognize your system as Solaris,
right?  (Look in file ".systype".)

Ah!  On my Solaris system, it had to use /usr/ucb/install - which, of
course, uses BSD syntax.  You may have to modify your
port/solaris/Makefile.set and your ".settings" file to make sure that
	'INSTALL=/usr/ucb/install'
Try doing a 'make install' after this.  If this doesn't work, then you
will have to do a 'make clean', and start again.

* For some value of "always".
