It's not in UPDATING, but a change was recently made (can't say exactly
when) which affects %gs/%fs. If you're using -current then you really
should watch the commits, too!

You'll have to recompile these ports, I suspect. Interestingly, my old
gkrellm still runs just fine with a new world from yesterday, but I had
to reinstall transcode.
