So somewhere in /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk there's this (this is from an old system, your version strings will be different)

.if (${OPSYS} == FreeBSD && (${OSVERSION} < 1104000 || (${OSVERSION} >= 1200000 && ${OSVERSION} < 1201000))) || \
    (${OPSYS} == DragonFly && ${DFLYVERSION} < 400400)
_UNSUPPORTED_SYSTEM_MESSAGE=    Ports Collection support for your ${OPSYS} version has ended, and no ports\
                                                                are guaranteed to build on this system. Please upgrade to a supported release.
. if defined(ALLOW_UNSUPPORTED_SYSTEM)
WARNING+=                       "${_UNSUPPORTED_SYSTEM_MESSAGE}"
. else

Check what version you're at using the same mechanism the port does (maybe add it to the message above) and see.  It could be someone put in a bad compare block, or it could be that your system has an incomplete upgrade that's reporting the wrong build (or someone's improperly comparing).

If it's bad, file a bug or poke a committer here.
