Actually, it turns out it was failing on the "deciding to install" stage.
I had thought the update in linux-pango version was a fix for the
longstanding security issue with 1.10.2_3, and I'd thus have a security
patched version, but it turns out that 1.10.2_4 has security issues as
well and that's why it didn't want to install.

I'm pretty severely disappointed in the state of linux-pango security on
FreeBSD right about now.
