It builds fine for me here, PYTHON_VERSION is set within the Makefile. 
it sounds like ports/Mk/bsd.python.mk didnt get updated, what is the cvs 
id on the file? Just Execute the command:
# ident /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.python.mk
/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.python.mk:
     $FreeBSD: ports/Mk/bsd.python.mk,v 1.55 2004/09/03 17:12:28 perky Exp $

I have the latest version which reflects 2.3 as the default python 
version. If you have anything older than version 1.55, you will need to 
cvsup your ports. Hope this helps
