portmaster -af and databases/db41

[Gary Aitken]

Trying to update everything after quite a while;
  portmaster -af 
failed at x11/damageproto:

  ===>>> All >> db41-4.1.25_4 (61/61)

  ===>>> Currently installed version: db41-4.1.25_4
  ===>>> Port directory: /usr/ports/databases/db41

        ===>>> This port is marked DEPRECATED
        ===>>> Please use databases/db5 or db6 for new installs.


        ===>>> If you are sure you can build it, remove the
               DEPRECATED line in the Makefile and try again.

  ===>>> Update for db41-4.1.25_4 failed
  ===>>> Aborting update

as per UPDATING 20131216
added
  WITH_BDB_VER=5
to
  /etc/make.conf
but still get the error.

What did I miss?
