Seems every time I try to install a pkg or make a port lately, I get this:

This looks like an incompletely removed old version of X.  In the current versio

My system is just fine as is, thanks, am I stuck not installling any
of these ports unless I upgrade X?

You need to update, yes. We don't support mixing and matching arbitrary old and new ports in any configuration (not just X). Sometimes it works, but one cannot rely on this.
