Ports are guaranteed to work only on the current releases of FreeBSD.  See
http://www.freebsd.org/ports for the paragraph I take that from.

Your options are to try to use packages (unsupported), updating to a
supported FreeBSD system and then updating all your ports.

There is an advantage to keeping up-to-date.

Sorry I didn't have good news.  Update and try again.
