I remember to have read that they changed their login interface, and
thus fetchyahoo needs to be updated.

A PR is already in the queue, but since the ports tree is currently
frozen, the update will take some time to take place.

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=3Dports/71804

If you are very impatienty, you can try the following:

Edit the ports makefile, and change PORTVERSION to 2.8.6.
Now run `make makesum && make build' and see if it works.

No guarantees, of course... ;-)
