Wow!  That worked great!  I did:

#  pkg bootstrap -f
#  pkg upgrade

Everything is back to normal!

My suggestion is that the upgrade announcement indicate how to rebuild the
third-party software.  Listing "pkg upgrade (or the equiv portmaster
command)" would help the average person.

Thanks, Matt!  That saved my butt!
