If I were you I'd just wait. 

Some joker at nvidia has modified nvidia-settings-1.0.tar.gz without renaming 
it. Sooner or later the port will catch up. If the  old version of 
nvidia-settings still works, why worry. If you are desperate, email the port 
maintainer.

Manually installing software is a bad idea, unless you have no alternative. 
The package database wont get updated and the existing packing list may not 
match the files you install.
