Jose, Short answer is wait until the FreeBsd port is updated unless there is some compelling reason not to. I would also suggest that you don't update unless it is really necessary on the grounds of don't fix it if it is not broken. The main reason for this is that the port collection is specifically for FreeBSD. Some of the ports come with patches to make what is generically a Linux program run under FreeBSD. If you want to try and update it without waiting look at pkg_delete in the manual then follow this instructions for installing the updated tar ball.
