Yes, I'm not sure if this is specifically mentioned in documentation yet, but building ports is only supported when the entire base OS is installed (i.e. all sets including xenocara). At the very least this should be added to DIAGNOSTICS in bsd.port.mk(5) (and remove the "<PORTSDIR> is a symlink", since this check has been removed from infrastructure).
