Gnome 2.6 broke OO and Evo

I was finally able to upgrade to gnome 2.6 on my 5.2 system.
When finished, I fired up Evolution and it came up, but with no fonts. I
tried a basic portupgrade of evo to accomodate the changes, but afterwards,
evo wouldn't even load. Trying the old fashioned method, I did a make
deinstall then make install, but still it doesn't load. A task bar item
comes up but no splash screen or anything, and after about 10 seconds it all
disappears.
Similar with OpenOffice, it just hangs when I try to fire anything up,
including setup. I did try pkg_deleting it and reinstalling the precompiled
package, but setup still won't run.
So, I am figuring the gnome upgrade broke something, but I have no idea on
where to start on figuring this out. Do I need to wait for new evo/OO
source/packages?
TIA
