Hi Eric,

possibly Kris was trying to refer you to this from /usr/ports/UPGRADING:

20051105:
  AFFECTS: all users of gnome/glib/gtk
  AUTHOR: gnome at FreeBSD.org

  GNOME has been updated to 2.12 and gtk/glib to 2.8.
  DO NOT USE portupgrade(1) to update your ports. Instead, use
  the gnome_upgrade.sh script from
  http://www.marcuscom.com/downloads/gnome_upgrade212.sh

Any possibility of this?
