Just upgraded libreoffice to version 3.5.5 using ports. Didn't have any 
trouble installing is, nor upgrading it.

:; uname -a
FreeBSD box2 9.0-RELEASE-p3 FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE-p3 #0: Tue Jun 12 
01:47:53 UTC 2012 
root@i386-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386

:; pkg_info -x libreoffice
Information for libreoffice-3.5.5

What sort of errors did you encounter while building the package using 
the ports?
