ntop fails to build. "request for member 'addressQueuedCurrent' in something not a structure or union"

Attempting to install ntop with MacPorts 1.600 on OS X 10.4.11 I got the following error.

Do you still see this problem with the current version, 3.3.8? If so, please try with the debug switch and attach the complete output. I don't think the output above is showing us the first error.

sudo port clean ntop
sudo port selfupdate
sudo port -d install ntop 2>&1 | tee ~/desktop/ntop.txt

Then, if it still failed, attach ntop.txt from your desktop to this ticket.

I don't have 10.4.11 any more to test against, but it works with 10.5.6.
