The same question has been asked a couple of days ago. I guess the right
answer to your question would be : when the maintainer will have time to
make the update. [1]

In the meantime, you can either try to fetch manually the 3.0.5 tarball
in the 'old-versions' subdir of the samba mirrors e.g. 
http://us1.samba.org/samba/ftp/old-versions/ and put it in your
distfiles/ directory then restart the build of the port or...

... you can help update the port and send a PR. For your information
there's already several people working on this [2], so hopefully there
should be an update to 3.0.6 in the next few days. Patience ;)

Regards,

G.
