have tried, over and over, to remove the affected ports and build them
from scratch but it hasnt been working.

and did a make install clean, and it installed fine. Then i tried to
build gvfs, also by doing a make install clean, and it died in the same
way--telling me to make deinstall and make reinstall of libcdio.

brute force way id like to know what it is so i can do that. This is
preventing a lot of other upgrades to GNOME, which i need.

Not to point out the obvious, but you're sure your port tree is up-to-date?

Yes as i said in my first post i resynced ports before this, and just did it again to make sure. No changes to this port or any of the others involved.
