You get that message if you are building a port that needs SSL on a
recent enough version of FreeBSD, and don't have a
/usr/lib/libcrypto.so. The version number doesn't matter.
Assuming you don't have libcrypto.so, did you try the handbook and
following the directions there for installing the OpenSSL
distribution?
