"A couple of times"? Congratulations...

One should not need this luck, nor this instinct, however.

Until I decide to upgrade gnome, all other gnome-using ports should be content 
with the version of gnome I already have...

This is all patently obvious, I might add. The automatic gio-fam dependency 
should be made smarter and/or optional (depending on which gnome is already 
installed).

Going forward, one hopes, gnome-team will not be so cavalier in forcing 
upgrades...
