It means that port is broken. Like it says.

So it told you this, I assume you've now fetched the two files it clearly
said were missing?

It gave at least eight "could not find bsd.port.{pre,port}.mk" errors,
and you didn't think to upgrade your /usr/share/mk to fix that?

Fetch the sources using src-all in your supfile or another method of
your choosing, upgrade /usr/share/mk by doing 'cd /usr/src/share/mk;
make install'.
