Just to keep it clear. ;-) I always upgrade my portupgrade manually
after a branch, but his problems sounded like he had not. What I am
getting bit with are things like:

-rw-------  1 db  wheel  1056768 Oct 28 23:12 xfce4-mixer-plugin.core
-rw-------  1 db  wheel  1159168 Oct 28 23:12 xfdesktop.core
-rw-------  1 db  wheel  1024000 Oct 28 23:12 xfce-mcs-manager.core
-rw-------  1 db  wheel   978944 Oct 28 23:12 xscreensaver-gl-hel.core
-rw-------  1 db  wheel  1032192 Oct 28 23:03 xfce4-session.core

All due to obsolete libs. Since there was a gnome import lately, updating
now seemed a good idea.
