Brian, to get you past the problem all you need do is

cd /usr/ports/emulators/linux_base-rh-9
make deinstall
cd ~
portmanager -u

emulators/linux_base-rh-9 is conflicting with emulators/linux_base-8

This output you sent just identified a bug I've been trying to track 
down for ages! Thanks for sending it!  It will be a few days to fix
it but I think you will be ok when your remove /linux_base-rh-9.
Let me know how it goes ok?

-Mike
