Description Carter 2017-04-13 02:09:29 UTC 
See Bug referenced in URL.  The current port for muffin is no longer maintained and EOL.  I experienced this failure while trying to install x11/cinnamon from the Ports Collection on FreeBSD-11-RELEASE-p8.  If you need any other information, or if Cinnamon needs an overhaul, new maintainer, qa-check etc, let me know.

According to the Gentoo package database, and yes I know this isn't Gentoo(since FreeBSD and Gentoo are both source based):

https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/x11-wm/muffin

looks like we need a commit to update to at least 2.8.5.  Let me know and I'll look through the Makefile for the other dependencies, and either create a TRACKER or some other DEPENDS type bug with a List of all affected packages needed to get a newer cinnamon running.

The Ports tree update for 2017-05-11 fixed the issue regarding x11-wm/muffin.  I'm updating the title to reflect a breakage in x11/cinnamon that is identical
