I got a report from two users close in time so I sensed there was some
urgency to commit a fix.  One was a private email, the other one was on
ports@: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2014-May/092146.html

> I want to know why .la is needed?

They are needed as long as there are .la files in other ports which
still contain references to them.  Those ports first need USES=libtool
too such that those references are removed.  Examples in this case are
openldap-client-sasl and libetpan.
