The latter, looks like.  The fact that you have the missing library
suggests you're not upgrading your ports correctly (e.g. using
portupgrade), which suggests you're probably not upgrading your OS
correctly either.  e.g. if you built and installed a new world without
first building, installing and booting a new kernel (per the
documentation in the handbook and UPDATING), you could run into this
error from new system calls recently added.
