Sorry for the fuss. I recompiled gconf2 and the error disappeared.
Previously, I had gconf2 installed as a package from
ftp/packages-7-stable, now I did compile the same version myself.
It might be the difference that the package has been build on pointyhat
or my system.
Otherwise, it proves that my attempt to rid my 7-RELEASE system from
7-STABLE packages that are incompatible failed:

gconf does not use any FBSD symbols that are not FBSD_1.0, but still
seems to be incompatible.
Sorry again and thanks for you attempt to help!
Cheers,
Jan Henrik
