Mee too...

The port for mysql-3.23 doesn't work on 3.x anymore you have to build 
manually or upgrade to FreeBSD 4.3

I recomend upgrading FreeBSD instead of wasting time with this.
There are a lot of security holes in 3.4 that have been fixed in 4.3
New ports is no longer supported on the 3.x branch so upgrading your 
applications will need more and more work. 
I'm about to upgrade my last 3.5 boxen to 4.3 anyday now.
