If it "does't work now" it needs to be fixed. This is a regression over 
1.2. Not automatically reinstalling packages when dependent shlibs 
change breaks a lot of packages. Port revision bumps do not always 
occur. Auto reinstalling for changed SHLIBS and OPTIONS is very 
important.

Poudriere will automatically rebuild packages if their dependencies are 
updated regardless of a revision bump. If no bump occurs, yet a shlib is 
bumped, the package is updated. Pkg 1.2 would detect this and reinstall 
the packages depending on that shlib. If we are now ignoring the 
version, and it doesn't work otherwise, then we are leaving people with 
broken systems where the only way to handle it is 'pkg upgrade -f' every 
time.

I understand the problem you describe of .so.X vs .so.X.Y, but this 
functionality was present during most of the RC and 1.3 releases right? 
It was changed due to wine? The wine issue is unrelated and is now 
fixed. I would think the more safe route would be to strip .X.* and keep 
.X rather than strip the entire version.
