Yes, I think there is, and I do have a file at
/usr/local/etc/apache/mime.types   
The problem is it is looking in 
/usr/local/etc/apache/etc/apache
(I should have made this clearer - note the doubling up on etc/apache)
I finally was able to install it by changing sysconfdir in the
FreeBSD.layout file under the files directory from /usr/ports/www/apache13
  I changed it to just $prefix instead of $prefix/etc/apache and that got
everything working (everything except being able to use apachectl start
that is).

I wonder if there might be a problem with the port - I'm sure a million
people use it... but who knows.
