Usually caused by the contents of /usr/ports/Mk being out of synch
with the rest of the ports tree.  The ${CPIO} macro was added a while
back now[1], and people are still being bitten by this.

The OP. needs to do a cvsup preferably of the 'ports-all' collection,
and without any ports related stuff in any refuse file.  Use
/usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile like so:

    # cvsup -g -L 2 -h cvsup.XX.freebsd.org /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile

where XX is an appropriate country code.

	Cheers,

unfortunately fairly shortly after 5.2.1-Release.
