It's not working, it's masking the real error, which is either in portupgrade 
or /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.ldap.mk.
Normally, you get this error, when a port's Makefile specifies it depends 
on "something", but that "something" isn't installed by the port, which means 
the "is this dependency installed" check always fails.

For me, it works:
# ls /var/db/pkg/|grep ldap
openldap-sasl-client-2.4.11
openldap-sasl-server-2.4.11_2
# make -C /usr/ports/net/nss_ldap lib-depends
===>   nss_ldap-1.257 depends on shared library: ldap-2.4.3 - found

Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules
    and never get to the software part.
