You may want to try using skype 1.2 (net/skype12), in my experience skype 2 and linux_base-fc6/osrelease=2.6 are far from stable.

I spent considerable amount of time trying to get skype 2.0 working some time ago, and it never worked for me, I don't remember the exact problem(s), but I do remember that my opinion of both skype 2 and the port maintainer has not exactly increased ...

Note that for reasons unknown net/skype12 has IGNORE set if you're using FreeBSD 7, so remove that line:
IGNORE= Legacy version, Use net/skype
