as a workaround, i suggest anyone upgrading pkgbase split the upgrade
into two steps:

	pkg upgrade -r base	# upgrade base
	pkg upgrade -r FreeBSD	# upgrade ports

replace 'base' with whatever your pkgbase repository is called.

as this problem appears to be triggered by something in ports, this
should ensure you don't end up with a broken base system if you run
into this.
