Your'e welcome.

I think you have somethings not fully upgraded to have some of those  
problems.  I hear it is kind of a comman problem with big ports like  
kde for some of the dependancies not to be built.  Portmanager is a new  
program I have found and like it.  It is not as full featured as  
portupgrade, but it is nice.  Install it, it is a very quick compile,  
less than a min.  Then run "portmanager -s | grep OLD" as root.  It  
will tell you everything that is out of date, be sure to cvsup ports  
and "cd /usr/ports && make fetchindex" first.

Did you rebuild x after you update to 5.3?  You will need to.  Try  
portupgrade -fRr xorg.

If you want to optimize you programs have a look at /etc/make.conf.   
You can check out /usr/share/example/make.conf first.  The p pro stands  
for pentium pro.  It is very old, pre pII.  It is also a default  
setting to optimise for that can help most modern x86 processors.  If  
you want to set some make options here is mine, note you may need to  
change the processor type.
