I had thought that at first, but felt is was the 
"windows" copout to install a brand new version
instead of figuring out the error message.

I want to install (not upgrade) a new version
on my 5.1 box.  Couldn't find pointers for
installing (not upgrading) from an existing 
freebsd box.

Also, is 5.4 the most recent release ?

FYI, 5.1 is very old and long out of support.  You should update to a
modern release of FreeBSD if you want your port builds (and FreeBSD
itself) to work smoothly.
