I wonder why you want to do this.
My system is not 5.3, but STABLE, which refers to
5.4-PRERELEASE at this moment. On this system, it
appears to me that base system and ports have the
same versions (see below). Then why not using
tcpdump from the basesystem?
Rob.
$ cd /usr/ports/
$ make search name=tcpdump
Port: tcpdump-3.8.3_1
Path: /usr/ports/net/tcpdump
Info: Ubiquitous network traffic analysis tool

B-deps: autoconf-2.53_3 libpcap-0.8.3 m4-1.4.1
perl-5.8.6_2
R-deps: libpcap-0.8.3
$ /usr/sbin/tcpdump -V
tcpdump version 3.8.3
libpcap version 0.8.3
