Unfortunately the only thing that can provide what linux-pango does is
another version of linux-pango.

No -- you'ld have to change the linux-base port and all other linux ports=
 to
the f10 version if you wanted to use linux-f10-pango-1.22.3.  linux_base-=
f10-10_2
seems to work OK for me on 7.2-STABLE, at least for providing flashplayer=

and acrobat8.

However, it won't help in your aim of trying to get a vulnerability free
linux-pango:

% portaudit linux-f10-pango-1.22.3
Affected package: linux-f10-pango-1.22.3
Type of problem: pango -- integer overflow.
Reference: <http://portaudit.FreeBSD.org/4b172278-3f46-11de-becb-001cc037=
7035.html>

1 problem(s) found.

	Cheers,
