The FreeBSD 7.0 isos only contain 7.0 packages, so it makes no sense
that they installed 6.x packages for you :-)

I guessed so. I installed ports via packages, did a cvsup a few days
ago with Release I think and since then I'm compiling.

OK, so you in fact did not just do a direct install from the iso and nothing else :) One of those other steps must have gone wrong, e.g. you installed packages from the wrong package set.
