As already reported in another thread, most ports will be fine, but hal and
tmux need rebuilding.I have about 1200 ports installed and have only found
those to this point. Almost certainly others do, as well, though they won't
be common, but rebuilding all ports is safest. (dbus does not seem to
require a rebuild).
