I have the same issue with most recent ports tree:

# portsnap fetch update
Looking up portsnap.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 6 mirrors found.

/usr/ports/sysutils/syslog-ng # make

===>  syslog-ng-3.11.1_1 conflicts with installed package(s):
       eventlog-0.2.12_1

       They install files into the same place.
       You may want to stop build with Ctrl + C.
