This is probably one of the bugs that stalks the ports system.
It is possible you got a html text message saying the server was too
busy stored into libxml2-2.6.31.tar.gz; the ports system at present does
not use file to check that the file it has fetched matches what it
was expecting. This is one of the cases where manual intervention is
necessary and you have to remove the file downloaded and try again.

It's not that easy a bug to fix unfortunately.
