Gnome ports puzzlemnet

[stan]

I cvsup'd the ports tree on one of my machines today, and was trying to
build a Gnome related port. I recived a warning message pointing to:

http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/docs/develfaq.html

And saying that failure to follow the instructions there would result in
brekage of my Gnome apps.

What puizzles me, si that this page sesm to be about updating to the
development version of Gnome, I want to stay with the stable version. The
machine is at 4.9 STABLE.

What don't I understand here?
