The problem is that my configuration had no SSL at all.  httpd-ssl.conf 
was not even included. Very simple local site. I didn't touch 
configuration during system upgrade.
After upgrade this problem occurs with svn/dav connections. ([warn] 
Init: Session Cache is not configured [hint: SSLSessionCache])

This section causes the problem:
<Location /svn/app>
   DAV svn
   SVNPath /home/my-repository
   AuthUserFile /usr/local/www/.htpasswd
   AuthName "Subversion repository"
   AuthType Basic
   require valid-user
</Location>

If such a simple configuration breaks this should be noted in 
/usr/ports/UPGRADING.

It asks for SSL certificate on the server with no SSL at all.
