Nope. It didn't.  Weird.

I went ahead and installed giflib manually and ran into another weird
problem.  Apparently, gif2epsn, which giflib depends on, was already
being used by another port, libungif.  I deactivated libungif, and
then installed giflib with no problem.  Now, when I tried to activate
libungif, it gets the same issue.  I activated with the `-f` flag and
I got the following output.

However, despite that, mplayer now installs, which is cool.  I'm just
concerned that something I want was depending somehow on libungif and
now I broke that.  But, oh well.

Thanks for all your help! :)
