Okay, just to make sure it makes it into the archives:
You can't install 3.x packages on a 2.x system.

[At least, not without doing some rather extensive upgrades --
extensive enough that if you'd done them, you would know enough that
you wouldn't need to ask this question.]

It's always a chancy thing to install packages from a different
FreeBSD version, but it's downright impossible in this case.

Be well.
