Everything went wrong installing 5.2.1

[Franz Klaus]

Hello. Today I installed 5.2.1 onto a desktop box, i810 chipset with 
Celerons 600MHz. And I installed 3 times with miniinstall CDROM but I never 
get rid of these problems:

<1> (almost) nothing compiles successful. Many applications in the port 
ends with a compile error like this one:

../gdk/.libs/libgdk-x11-2.0.so: undefined reference to 
`XML_SetElementHandler'
../gdk/.libs/libgdk-x11-2.0.so: undefined reference to 
`XML_SetDoctypeDeclHandle
r'
../gdk/.libs/libgdk-x11-2.0.so: undefined reference to `XML_ParserFree'
../gdk/.libs/libgdk-x11-2.0.so: undefined reference to 
`XML_SetCharacterDataHand
ler'
../gdk/.libs/libgdk-x11-2.0.so: undefined reference to `XML_ErrorString'
../gdk/.libs/libgdk-x11-2.0.so: undefined reference to `XML_ParseBuffer'
../gdk/.libs/libgdk-x11-2.0.so: undefined reference to `XML_ParserCreate'
../gdk/.libs/libgdk-x11-2.0.so: undefined reference to `XML_SetUserData'
../gdk/.libs/libgdk-x11-2.0.so: undefined reference to `XML_GetErrorCode'
../gdk/.libs/libgdk-x11-2.0.so: undefined reference to `XML_GetBuffer'
../gdk/.libs/libgdk-x11-2.0.so: undefined reference to 
`XML_GetCurrentLineNumber

These failed application include kde, gnome, lynx and several others. First 
I thought I must lack of some XML library, expat is all what I can think 
about, and it's already installed.

<2>pkg_add keep telling me "tar: cannot create symbolic link" or "tar: 
xxxfile: cannot stat: No such file or directory". This message shows up in 
almost every pkg_add

<3>installed application not runnable. each display different strange error 
message. sometimes they complain lack of particiliar library (and fix by 
manual make symbolic link), but some error are too strange and need several 
pages to describe.

I tried to install from FTP server rather than disco, or to choose 
different install type. I am pretty upset. Because I have been using 
FreeBSD for 3 years and never met such problems, begin to think this is a 
not-well-tested release. Now I'm already familiar with typing "make" and 
wait for error messages.

Any idea? Should I move to 5.2?
