The ABI is consistent between STABLE and RELEASE, right? Yes, there is a problem. See my posting here: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2008-June/177553.html Unfortunatelly, I have not got an answer, but it is obvious packages using this new symbol must fail: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/cvs-src/2008-May/091586.html The question is, if other package may fail as well. I have had one more error that went away after recompiling a STABLE package: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-gnome/2008-July/020520.html I do not know if this is related, though. If you find out more, please, let me know. Cheers, Jan Henrik
