dialog4ports(1) uses stdout for passing back results, where the former 
dialog(1) used stderr.  I reverted the new behaviour back to the 
previous one, which fixed the problem for me.  I don't know about other 
implications, though.

Ilya (author of dialog4ports) is aware of the problem and having a look 
at it.

I'm glad that other people are running into this, also.  I was beginning 
to think, that there's something fundamentally wrong with the way our 
8.x jails are configured.
