2.24 -> 2.26 Upgrade Tips

I ran across a couple of issues updating from 2.24 to 2.26 that might be
mentioned in UPDATING and on the FreeBSD Gnome page.

First, there has been an Apache bump from version 2.0 to 2.2; it is part
of one of the extended Gnome packages (powertools?)  You have to do that
upgrade first, or else the upgrade will fail.

There is also a bug in ImageMagick dealing with high-resolution images.
That option needs to be deselected; otherwise the port is marked as
"IGNORE" and updating one of the extended packages will fail.

Otherwise, the upgrade was pretty straightforward, though not without a
couple of hick-ups.  Minor stuff, mostly.
