The problem is that the dns/fastresolve port doesn't know how to build
with Berkley DB 4.3 (WITH_BDB_VER).

Building the ports INDEX file with these changes in your
/etc/make.conf haven't been tested, and are unsupported.  You'll need
to do the following:

mv /etc/make.conf /etc/make.conf.old
portsdb -fU
mv /etc/make.conf.old /etc/make.conf

You could also try fixing the dns/fastresolve port to build with
Berkley DB 4.3, but you'll find that another port will break.

Someone should consolidate these Berkley DB selection into a
bsd.berkleydb.mk file someday.
