This does make the desktop work again :)  I followed the advice and am
back in the saddle.  Some things failed to compile, but I used -x
parameter to not update them.  I will track those ports later.  I
appreciate the help and advice provided.

It appears that a new pcre update hits the ports later.  I wonder if
it bypasses the original problem.
