What have you got in /etc/make.conf? bsd.port.mk is what sets the
make(1) macros for pkg_create, etc. (See /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk lines
2150-2165). Also, when did you last update your ports tree?

make.conf:

CPUTYPE?=p3
CFLAGS=-O

NO_RESCUE=true
NO_BLUETOOTH=true
NO_DYNAMICROOT=true
NO_I4B=true
NO_IPFILTER=true
NO_KERBEROS=true
NO_LPR=true
NO_GAMES=true
NO_BIND=true
NO_SENDMAIL=true
NO_VINUM=true
NO_ATM=true
NO_INET6=true
NO_INFO=true
NO_SHARE=true
PPP_NOSUID=true
LOADER_TFTP_SUPPORT=no

I last updated the ports tree at about 11am this morning GMT, I
think the last time before that was about a week ago.
