Yes there is.

Here is a snip from the Makefile in /usr/ports/devel/gio-fam-backend

,----
| PORTNAME=       gio-fam-backend
| PORTVERSION=    2.16.3
| CATEGORIES=     devel
| MASTER_SITES=   ${MASTER_SITE_GNOME:S,%SUBDIR%,sources/glib/${PORTVERSION:C/^([0-9]+\.[0-9]+).*/\1/},} \
|                 ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/glib/${PORTVERSION:C/^([0-9]+\.[0-9]+).*/\1/}/ \
|                 ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/%SUBDIR%/ \
|                 ftp://ftp.cs.umn.edu/pub/gimp/%SUBDIR%/ \
|                 http://www.ameth.org/gimp/%SUBDIR%/ \
|                 ${MASTER_SITE_RINGSERVER:S,%SUBDIR%,graphics/gimp/%SUBDIR%,}
| MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR=     gtk/v${PORTVERSION:C/^([0-9]+\.[0-9]+).*/\1/}
| DISTNAME=       glib-${PORTVERSION}

Compare the 2nd line with the last - this port needs glib-2.16.3


Now

$cat /usr/ports/devel/glib20/distinfo

MD5 (gnome2/glib-2.16.3.tar.bz2) = 195f9a803cc5279dbb39afdf985f44cb
SHA256 (gnome2/glib-2.16.3.tar.bz2) = 562742a234c7b842d891ec8ed4c9bead093c33863cca01e31912f59f6c8e887d
SIZE (gnome2/glib-2.16.3.tar.bz2) = 4540919

so if you install that port then gio-fam-backend will work.  It worked here!
