Here is my guess, and I emphasize that it is a guess:
http://fireflynetworks.net/pipermail/rtg/2004-December/001375.html
is a page I found by using Google to search for:

I suggest reinstalling the ports you deinstalled, if you haven't
already done so...

I can't quite parse this because it appears to me that you've left out
a word or two.

And here it is: go and update your source, including the ports tree,
after you have reinstalled the ports you deinstalled. Make sure that
the world is correctly installed; then go and try the portupgrade
bits, one port at a time.

Go and do buildworld, then portupgrade.

Yes, it appears that you have broken something.

No, you don't need to do a complete reinstall, IMO; you do need to
update your source, perhaps even desperately.
