well, just in case anyone else encounters this here's what I did:

# pkg_delete -f libgda-0.2.90
# fetch 
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/branches/4.0-stable/packages/databases/libgda-0.2.10_1.tgz
# pkg_add libgda-0.2.10_1.tgz
# pkg_delete -f libgda-0.2.10_1
# cd /usr/ports/databases/libgda; make && make install
# cd /usr/ports/databases/gnomedb; make && make install

that's it.  basically I'm just installing the old version so that I
pkg_delete to get rid of everything in /usr/local.  I'm still concerned
about how this happened and what other cruft I have lying around that's
conflicting with newer stuff.  I might even so something I haven't done
since my windows days, format and reinstall.  :-(
