I've had the same problem around 5th of April when I installed a 7.0-R
in the laptop of my wife, after doing 'portsnap fetch & update'; it
turned out that glib20 was installed as glib-2.14.2; I went to
/usr/ports/devel/glib20 removed the pkg and installed it as fresh as
2.16.x; this helped; don't know (and understand) how the older glib20
came to the system, maybe as part of the basis system; on next fresh
install I will have a closer look what gets installed with the OS;

hope it helps you
