It's 'latex.ltx' nowadays. 

Run 'make' in /usr/ports()..latex(whichever version you want) to extract
the distribution. Edit your config files (under 'work') for extras such as
foreign language hyphenation etc. 'make'; 'make install'. If more editing
is necessary just do 'initex latex.ltx' unless you insist on running
latex209.

Refer to "The LaTeX Companion" by Goossens et al. for more info.
