Since you say this is happening with "most"
ports, there is a possibility that your very
up-to-date ports tree is having problems
with your rather out-of-date OS.  A
suggestion would be to update to 4.6 or
better yet -STABLE and try again.  However,
don't take that advice without a good understanding
of what you're doing....read the Handbook,
read /usr/src/UPDATING, read 'man cvsup'
etc., etc., ....

I took the jump to -STABLE  from 4.4-R 
a few months ago, and am pretty pleased
with how everything works together....
