After I recovered the ability to do deinstall/reinstall I did just that
with vim and it solved the problem.  I'm still not sure why the original
problem occurred, but everything is working now.

I take it that you also recently upgraded perl.  Did you follow the  
instructions in /usr/ports/UPDATING regarding perl?


I'm not sure that this will solve your problem, but it might.

Well...I checked UPDATING and ran the perl script referenced, and vim 
isn't one of the affected programs.  So still have the problem.

this is probably not the correct way of dealing with this...
but whenever I have trouble like this , I just do somthing like

cd /usr/ports/editors/vim  make deinstall clean  make install clean

most of the time the problem goes away

Good advice, but unfortunately I can't install, deinstall, or reinstall. 
See my post Can't install from ports that was posted about 30 minutes 
ago. 
This one has me a little worried.
