You'll have to rempile all ports anyway. For the few ports which still
require an old library(diablo-jdk, for one) you can use libmap.conf:

# Temporary libmap.cnf to solve problems caused by the 8.0 lib version
bump.

# diablo still looks for libz.so.4
libz.so.4		libz.so.5

I made this to solve the problem i found with the diablo jdk binaries.

(not restricted because sometimes I call java binaries without
path...Should not interefere with other programs)
