...
.include <bsd.port.pre.mk>
.if ${OSVERSION} > 6300000
DISTNAME=	${PORTNAME}-${PORTVERSION}-x86-freebsd6.3
.elif ${OSVERSION} > 700000
DISTNAME=	${PORTNAME}-${PORTVERSION}-x86-freebsd7.0
.elif ${OSVERSION} > 800000
DISTNAME=	${PORTNAME}-${PORTVERSION}-x86-freebsd8.0
.endif
...

.. or something like.
