workbench build failure on FreeBSD

Greets to the list,

I stumbled across a weird issue when trying to build MySQL Workbench in a 
fresh FreeBSD 9 RELEASE / KDE machine (using FreeBSD port mechanism):

First I used the Workbench port without any modification and as provided by 
the ports collection. 

Result:
/usr/ports/databases/mysql-workbench52# make install
===>  mysql-workbench-oss52-5.2.1_5 cannot install: does not work with MySQL 
version 55 (MySQL 41 55 not supported).
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/databases/mysql-workbench52.

Then - as I could not find any single hint on the web regarding 
incompatibility between MySQL 5.5 and Workbench 5.2, I modified the Makefile 
to just try it.

Result:

In file included from ./my_global.h:383,
                 from mysys_priv.h:17,
                 from charset-def.cpp:17:
/usr/include/sys/timeb.h:42:2: warning: #warning "this file includes 
<sys/timeb.h> which is deprecated"
In file included from mysys_priv.h:17,
                 from charset-def.cpp:17:

Btw, another test trying to build the Workbench on an older system (using 
MySQL 5.1 too failed.

So, it seems something is substantially wrong with the Workbench port on 
FreeBSD (and may be other BSDs too).

The port maintainer for the Workbench port on FreeBSD recently resigned, so 
currently there's nobody maintaining the Workbench port.

As I view the Workbench as a vital thing for MySQL ob BSD I just ask for 
help on this list.

Also, I hope a new port maintainer could possibily be found here.

kind regards
Tom
