Quoting  /usr/ports/print/teTeX-base/pkg-descr:

    teTeX is _the_ TeX distribution for UNIX compatible systems.  It
    contains the latest versions of TeX & friends and nearly everything
    you need for happy TeX'ing.  For more information have a look at
    the lengthy FEATURES file of the distribution.

    teTeX-base contains various utilities including TeX and dviware themselves.

However, I just built the latex port from scratch on an up-to-date
-STABLE system, and it worked fine.  Do you have up-to-date ports?
Make sure you clean the port directory before trying to build it
again.
