So do I.

I doubt it. How a single command "portmaster -r gio-fam-backend" may
even know about glib20? And IMHO glib20 cannot be used as a
replacement. From PORTMASTER(8) about -r option: "is for
"rebuild the specified port, and all ports that depend on it."

So did I (about a half dozen systems) and I did what is suggested at
UPDATING (rebuild ports with -r option and then remove gio-fam-
backend). Modulo some problems due to new ld properties at CURRENT
all went smooth.

FYI: here is my .portmasterrc:
