I keep my ports directory up to date with cvsup.  Reading the
Makefile for gnat, it implies that you need to bootstrap by
adding a gnat package.  You might try looking for a package on
one of the European mirrors, then doing a pkg_add.  Then you
should be able to bootstrap into the ports version (if it differs
from that of the package).  Theoretically, that is. ;-)
