The port files, i.e. /usr/ports/audio/rsynth/* have been updated to pick up the 2.0 port. This should be available on FreeBSD.org or you can sup it, if you do that kind of thing. Unfortunately the ports change faster than the releases as new ports are added and old ports are updated to new versions of released software. If you need anymore detail, let me know.
