There's apparently something non-standard to your ports config because the
only master site is:

MASTER_SITES=	http://www.slimdevices.com/downloads/SqueezeCenter_v${PORTVERSION}/

The file is not on freebsd.org or any mirrors because Slim Devices
forbids redistribution.

You've got an out of date port version.  I wasn't deleteing enough
of the included YAML/Syck installation and after a recent update in
ports, the two versions started to conflict in strange ways.  The latest
version of the of squeezecenter is 7.0.1.
