Unfortunately, this is not sufficient because someone removed the
shlib major part of freetype2 and some other libraries' LIB_DEPENDS
entries from his ports. You should grep for -w freetype2 instead to
catch by the port name.

Actually many ports that have explicit dependencies in their Makefiles
were left untouched too. (Read other mails on this thread, you can
find my getting sobomax' OK to deal with ImageMagic, gd and
XFree86-4-libraries)
Anyhow, let's do bump PORTREVISION's ourselves whenever we find this
kind of incomplete library port upgrade. :)
Or users may just get lost.
