Looks like you forgot to update your ports collection. Easiest way to update
them:

# portsnap fetch extract

Or you can use cvsup following the handbook (portsnap is also documented
there):

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports-using.html

Also, you may have to first download the Java binaries and place them in
/usr/ports/distfiles (though I am not sure if this a requirement still,
since Java is now open sourced). Update your ports using portsnap and then
attempt to install /usr/ports/java/diablo-jre15; the Java binary downloads
can be found here:
