Last time this happened, this is what caused my to deinstall gnome. THe upgrade 
script could take weeks to run on a reasonable spec machine because it insisted 
on rebuilding all sorts of stuff. You couldn't stop it, or it would start over.

It seems to me that its a product of gnome being so many ports. Why not just 
have a few, like KDE (although it appears KDE is going the way of gnome - if 
this results in portupgrade not working there either, its insanity).
