Yes, but there is 0.9.7i, too. Look at below 0.9.8.

I tried to make a package from that before I install it, but I got this 
error, and I don't know what to do now:

[root at server /usr/ports/security/openssl]# make 
OPENSSL_OVERWRITE_BASE=YES WITH_OPENSSL_097=YES package
#
# this ports does not support the dynamic root
# please undefine OPENSSL_OVERWRITE_BASE
# and use WITH_OPENSSL_PORT=yes instead.
#
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/security/openssl.
[root at server /usr/ports/security/openssl]#
