No, the last problem was quite a bit different. (Well, it was a loader
issue.) It was an error that occurred when building Gnome and was
cause by an out-dated gmake which produced a message making libintl.so
suspect.

This is a run-time error with the problem in libc_r. And, what makes
it worse is that gnome was starting last week and went away this
week. I only re-built some ports in between. (Unfortunately, I don't
recall just what ports.)
