I ran into this problem today from some servers I installed 2 days ago.  
I did not have p5-XML-SAX-Base-1.08 installed prior to running 
portupgrade -a this morning which installed it then p5-XML-Sax failed.  
If I remove p5-XML-SAX-Base-1.08 and let portupgrade re-add whatever it 
wants, it worked.
