I had the same problem using portmaster. The answer was on the web for me:


https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/devel-libpthread-stubs-port-has-been-deleted-no-consumers-left-and-never-supported-pthread-stubs-in-libc-on-freebsd.88350/

which says:
I bumped into this today as well. When I ran pkg info -r libpthread-stubs-0.4 it showed a dependency for x11/libxcb

I "upgraded" libxcb to 1.15_1 and the dependency is now gone.

That worked for me and I successfully upgraded my ports.
