You need to update /usr/share/mk/*.mk to fix it.  Go to
http://www.freebsd.org/ports/ and download the appropriate upgrade
kit.

I Cc'd this to -doc because this is the 2nd or 3rd message with this
question today.  Doc guys.. perhaps this should be added to the FAQ if
it hasn't been already (guess I should've checked first =)).  I'm
willing to write the entry as a text file (I dunno jack about SGML..
yet) and submit the PR if anyone else thinks it'd be useful.

Thanks,
