Sure, there is a reason.

Until there is no official announcement it can always happens a blocker is found and the release will be revoked.
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/httpd-announce/

I suspect you are not able to find a 2.4.8 release because an issue where found and fixed in the last moment.

In case someone wants to upgrade, a patch can be found here.
http://people.freebsd.org/~ohauer/diffs/apache22-2.2.27.diff

To apply the patch use the following commands.

$> cd /usr/ports
$> fetch http://people.freebsd.org/~ohauer/diffs/apache22-2.2.27.diff
$> patch < apache22-2.2.27.diff
