freebsd-update - upgrade from 9.1-RELEASE to 9.3-RELEASE - requries all ports rebuilt?

[Karl Pielorz]

Hi,

I just walked a system from 9.1-RELEASE to 9.3-RELEASE using 
'freebsd-update -r 9.3-RELEASE upgrade'

Having fetched, patched, gone to single user - installed, rebooted - and 
installed again - I'm greeted by:

"
Completing this upgrade requires removing old shared object file.
Please rebuild all installed 3rd part software (e.g., programs
installed from the ports tree) and then run '/usr/sbin/freebsd-update 
install' again to finish installing updates.
"


I thought that only had to happen if you moved between major versions (e.g. 
9.x to 10.x?)

I can't find any way of making freebsd-update tell me what files it wants 
to remove now either?

If I ignore this (on the understanding I may be running binaries linked 
against 'older' libraries) is that OK?

This machine has a lot of ports on it - going from 9.1 to 9.3 was done 
because I *thought* that wouldn't require a mass recompile :(
