I've run a test on a tinderbox with 8.0-STABLE i386 and tested the ports
depending on security/nss with 3.12.6. Beside a build failure of ruby
(which doesn't look related to nss) I couldn't found a problem:
http://gecko.miwibox.org/index.php?action=list_buildports&build=8-FreeBSD_i386

Also the update to 3.12.6 does not include a shlib bump so I think there
is no PORTREVISION bump of the depending ports needed.

Does this update somehow interfere with the upcoming gnome update?

Thanks,
Beat
