It did, and could again.  You just have to check out an older ports
tree.  Using cvs, checkout a ports tree from July 14, 2003.  That tree
should still have x11-fm/nautilus which is a working port of Nautilus
1.0.6 for FreeBSD (I know it works because I used for a long time). 
Note, that is the last ports tree you can use given your current setup. 
The next day, Nautilus was removed from the system in favor of the GNOME
2 stuff.
