ymessenger is a binary port, so you cannot recompile it.

pkg_info -W /usr/local/lib/libglib.12.so.3
/usr/local/lib/libglib12.so.3 was installed by package glib-1.2.10_8

I recommend the following:
- try recompiling the glib-1.2.10_8 (or newer) port

If that doesn't work, try the following:

Set the following environment variable before starting ymessenger:
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libc.so.5
export LD_PRELOAD

Tracking these problems down is a pain. :(
