Fixing a broken pkg-plist is significant, because the unfixed port will leave cruft behind on the system, which is unfriendly. As always, you have the option of when to upgrade your ports. If you have your own criteria for what constitutes an important change, you can rebuild your ports accordingly. Indeed, blindly running 'portupgrade -a' is generally discouraged on several grounds.
