smartmontools crashes under FreeBSD / ppc. Is this a known issue?

Hello,
I'm running FreeBSD 9.0-current on a PowerMac G5:
Code:
root@kg-g5# uname -a
FreeBSD kg-g5.kg4.no 9.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT #119 r217462M: Sat Jan 15 16:05:38 CST 2011
     root@comporellon.tachypleus.net:/usr/obj/powerpc.powerpc/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  powerpc
I have installed smartmontools from ports:
Code:
root@kg-g5# pkg_info | grep smartmontools
smartmontools-5.40  S.M.A.R.T. disk monitoring tools
Which looks ok, but doesn't really work:
Code:
root@kg-g5# smartctl
smartctl 5.40 2010-10-16 r3189 [FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT powerpc] (local build)

Is this a known issue? I googled it, but didn't find anything related.
 
It also crashes on an iBook G4 running FreeBSD 9.1-prerelease:
Code:
root@kg-ibook# uname -a

Unfortunately, that's all I got.
 
Yes, using your /etc/make.conf settings got me a working smartmontools - thanks!
Now # smartctl -a /dev/ada0 works without problems.
I see one small thing when starting smartd:
Code:
root@kg-ibook# service smartd status
smartd is not running.
root@kg-ibook# service smartd start
Starting smartd.

root@kg-ibook# service smartd status
smartd is running as pid 6612.
Not sure what that is about.
