Looks like you may have a lot of components out of sync.  You should
first wait until your portupgrade finishes, then make sure you've done
the obligatory portupgrade -rf gettext (if you've installed before
gettext was updated to 0.13.x).  After that, if you still have problems,
a portupgrade -Rf evolution should straighten you out.  Evo does work
under -STABLE just fine.
