It seems there is a long-standing issue with net/libnet, net/libnet10 
and net/libnet-devel ports, that affect about 40 ports, and dsniff is 
one of those.

See the following three PRs:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/97257
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/89098
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/95733

And one that is supposed tofix the issue:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/103861

As it is a big change, that affects about 40 port, it needs 
test/approval from the Ports Management Team. I put them into CC, maybe 
they can give you more information, how they want this issue fixed. If 
you can help, that's highly appreciated, please consult with them about 
the issue.

Regards,
Gabor
