As far I know, the gimp and gnome update will not be done until FreeBSD 
9.1 will be released (a couple of weeks at minimum). But in a mean time 
you can update the required ports manually, using this archive:

http://people.freebsd.org/~rm/gimp.tgz

Note: please do not just copy them over the current ports, because there 
is some patches, that should be removed first to make things working!

And. What is wrong with rawtherapee? It's on it's latest version as far 
I understand.
