Just upgraded libreoffice to version 3.5.5 using ports. Didn't have any 
trouble installing is, nor upgrading it.

:; uname -a
FreeBSD box2 9.0-RELEASE-p3 FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE-p3 #0: Tue Jun 12

:; pkg_info -x libreoffice
Information for libreoffice-3.5.5

What sort of errors did you encounter while building the package using 
the ports?
