I see libz.so.6 in my /usr/lib on:

9.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE #0 r245243: Wed Jan  9 18:25:14 EST 2013

Remind me: did you buildworld and installworld prior to upgrading ports?

While I wonder why you deleted your pkgdb.db, more to the point: did you
rebuild it?

My guess is that you did not rebuild the pkgdb.db...

....and I'd do that before trying to solve fixing the libz.so.5 issue.
