Install the latest  cvsup

If you do not have cvsup set up I strongly suggest you take few
minutes to set it up as stated here

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html

There are some sampe cvsup files here

/usr/share/examples/cvsup/.

It is imperative that you get this working right since your system
health depends on your source tree. If you want I can mail you my
cvsupfile, but I just took it from the examples above. 

Then I would wipe out your entire ports/x11 tree. If you never updated
your ports collection, I would delete everything under /ports/ and get
everything clean. 

Then I would run  

cvsup -g -L 2 stable-supfile

This would get me clean version of /ports/*

After that, you can go about building KDE.
