Yes, I did. In fact, freebsd-update provided the solution; I used it
to upgrade to FreeBSD 8.4-release:
root@kg-vm2# uname -a
FreeBSD kg-vm2 8.4-RELEASE-p14 FreeBSD 8.4-RELEASE-p14 #0: Tue Jul 8
12:41:46 UTC 2014
root@amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64
and since the machine now is on a supported version, the ports tree
works again, and I installed subversion and
used that to get the latest FreeBSD 8-stable source on the machine,
and used that to update the machine to FreeBSD 8.4-stable.
HTH
