i think it's mandatory

unfortunately, we're not going to fix the problem. kde 3 is 
unmaintained upstream, and it looks like it has just become too old to 
survive (at a quick look, the problem seems to be an incompatibility with 
the new xorg). your best chance is finding some kde 3 advanced user 
willing to fix it (but more problems will likely come out) - there is a 
thread on ports@, "KDE3?", you might be interested in - or rolling your 
ports tree back to 8.2-RELEASE tag - which, i *guess*, might work -, and 
not updating anymore...

but, to be honest, i think you should upgrade to kde 4
