If you have all the compat*x libraries installed you might not need to.
But if you don't, things will use the old libraries and not the new ones
in 7.

I would suggest you do.


After a 6.2-stable to 7.0-current upgrade i'm having segmentation  
fault from some apps (gnucash at the beggining and now from several  
kde tools). So I'm rebuilding everything :)

I would suggest if you're not sure on staying with -current, that you don't. 
Once you're confident you're staying with -current cause your hardware 
responds well, there's always time to upgrade. If your hardware doesn't 
respond well going back is a whole lot easier.

Yes (as with any major release upgrade).  Old binaries will continue to 
work, but if you ever plan to compile a new port you will have to 
rebuild your existing ports first, because otherwise you'll be linking 
together 6.x and 7.x libraries in the same binary, which is a recipe for 
sadness.
