Sorry to reply to own email, but for the record, the workaround which is
in process now that I maybe forgot (unstated above)... is

pkg install python27
[ two download sessions result, a preliminary and a secondary, 966 ports...]

which is [maybe] reinstalling a whole lot of ports including the
problematic one(s). 
At least it is downloading the files.
Remains to be seen if it will get past the SAT solver problem piecemeal
or not.

[ I run it with 'script' to maybe reinstall some of the ones it wants to
deinstall (quite a few)
in order to install those 966....]

Well, not-final result,  it has run 3 times so far, and silently exits
at about
490 out of 660 or so... starts over... may work eventually.   May not...

Not the principal BSD install here, so is not so urgent...
