There must be a better way to find older ports/packages. What should I have
done?

From kdiff3 homepage looks that from version 0.9.93 kdiff3 works with KDE4.
Earlier version worked with KDE3 only. In ports is version 0.9.95 and in
Makefile it's line USE_KDE4 so it builds with KDE4. You can take earlier port
version 0.9.92 manually from
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/textproc/kdiff3/
or use ports-mgmt/portdowngrade

Thank you, portdowngrade worked perfectly. I doubt I would have found this 
without your help
