Looked through the ports directory and found that I have both:

wv-1.0.0_2   A library and executables to access Microsoft Word files
and
wv2-0.2.2_1   A library providing routines to access Microsoft Word files

installed, and that these are the most recent versions available on ports. 
Is it possible to get the more recent version 1.0.0_3 as prescribed in the 
given message?

Blessings,

Rev. Gordon Gilbert+
