Well I will come right out and say it. Yes you should be using
version 4.9, it's the current production version. All of the 5.x
versions are used by the development team to test code changes to
the basic system and your problem may be caused because of this
testing environment. The odds are in your favor that the install
will work if you install version 4.9.

I don't mean that at all.  Just that you should be aware that
FreeBSD
5.x is not intended for production use at this time.
