LaTeX obviously depends on the TeX port, but this seems not to be the
problem here, unless you are using an older TeX. I have build TeX and
LaTeX several times on FreeBSD 2.0 and 1.1.5.1 without any problems.

Your problem may be that the file 'hyphen.tex' is missing. It is part
of the tex_base.tar.gz dist. file, and it is installed when you
install TeX. Can  you check this?
