The problem is that as of the next time you update a machine that had

because the old shared library versions will still be there.  However
anything you build on the machine after its base system gets updated
would be linked against the newer base system shared libraries but any
libraries that are part of ports or other applications (e.g. the Xorg
libraries) would have been linked against the older library versions.
You really don't want to leave things that way.
So, to be clear: a fresh ports tree and "portupgrade -af" after building and installing r195767+ should be enough to solve any problems? (installkernel, installworld, reboot, portupgrade -af)
