Ditto! While it did not take me long to discover that the ncurses shareable
had bumped the version, I wasted a lot of time rebuilding ports one by one.
At least a heads-up would have been nice. The way to do this is unclear,
though, as it was a base library update. I assume that it only bit those
running current or 13. Those running 13-STABLE, as I was, had no warning.
I'm not sure a note in UPDATING would have been appropriate, but a post to
stable@ and current@ would have been nice. Or, did I miss them?

This would also be made VERY clear in the 13.0 Release Notes. I suspect
installing misc/compat12x would have worked.
