Your textproc/docproj port is out of date.

Not sure if it should.  It relies on the user installing the PNG support

Try to pull it from one of the FreeBSD sites, with this line in
/etc/make.conf

MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE?=   \
	ftp://ftp.xx.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/${DIST_SUBDIR}/

Change 'xx' to point to your nearest mirror.
