Well, grdesktop has a number of dependencies that also depend on 
glib-2.4.0. I would guess that you have some that haven't been built 
since you updated glib to 2.4.0.

The ports that require glib-2.4 look to be smaller than the requirements 
of grdesktop. If you use gnome2, you might download the update script 
from the URL in the gnome2 section of /usr/ports/UPDATING. It appears 
that you need to run it.
