I have done a portupgrade of cvsup -Rf but still have the same problem.

However I notice an oddity.

Despite having installed cvsup, turning X11 support on via config, pkg_info 
reports that 
cvsup-without-gui-16.1h_4
is installed.

It does not look right.

I am wondering if anyone could tell me what is going on here and/or whether 
someone knows enough to decipher the problem by taking a look at the core 
dump.
