Forgive my long absence on this topic, since filing it, I moved and am
getting settled back into my new place. I ran the instructions for updating
libicu from /usr/ports/UPDATING and it failed (as I expected it would with a
py26 error (one I reported previously and was never able to completely fix))

Please run the gnomelogalyzer, available from
"http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/gnomelogalyzer.sh", which will diagnose the
problem and suggest a solution. If - and only if - the gnomelogalyzer cannot
solve the problem, report the build failure to the FreeBSD GNOME team at
gnome at FreeBSD.org, and attach (a)
"/usr/ports/devel/gobject-introspection/work/gobject-introspection-0.9.12/config.log",
(b) the output of the failed make command, and (c) the gnomelogalyzer
output.
Also, it might be a good idea to provide an overview of all packages
installed
on your system (i.e. an `ls /var/db/pkg`). Put your attachment up on any
website, copy-and-paste into http://freebsd-gnome.pastebin.com, or use
send-pr(1) with the attachment. Try to avoid sending any attachments to the
mailing list (gnome at FreeBSD.org), because attachments sent to FreeBSD
mailing
lists are usually discarded by the mailing list software.

The above process was invoked by -> portmaster -r icu (from
/usr/ports/UPDATING). The larger question here, how can I fix these errors
that keep coming back to slap me in the face in regard to py26 (which has
done nothing but cause me headache after headache since I upgraded python on
this machine)
