Comment(by spaceboy@…):

 The -jN flag tells gmake to attempt to keep at least N parallel tasks
 running whenever it can. This flag should default to 1 task on a single-
 core host, while on a multicore host Macports should automatically detect
 multiple cores and set N > 1.

 Unfortunately the -j1 build failed, where a parallel build of -j2 or -j4
 worked for me.   I didn't have time to determine the root cause of the -j1
 build failure, I just noticed it, applied the fix below and moved on.

 Exact steps I took to get my ffmpeg build working on a single-core host.
 {{{
  % vi ports/multimedia/ffmpeg/Portfile
  Change build.cmd from "gmake" to "gmake -j2"
  Clean and rebuild ffmpeg.
 }}}
