I've been fairly lucky so far as most of it I've been able to fairly easily get by. Only outstanding item for me at this point in time is php5_pdo-mysql is horribly broken [Again]. It has been a long time since I've had to do anything like this, but I believe what you will probably end up needing to do is to csup the ports tree back one step to the earlier date/state. Then build the php5-pcre as it was when it was before. Not entirely sure about how big a mess that might be in attempting to properly confuse portdowngrade. In the past when I've had trouble of this nature I step in and just build/install whatever ports are problematic manually by hand and bypass using the portupgrade tools. -Mike
