If you really, really want to be sure, 'pkg_rolling-replace -rsuv', with a /usr/pkgsrc that contains a quarterly release. This will rebuild everything that can be upgraded, and everything that could possibly depend on those packages. It'll take a long time, and there may be a few packages you have to manually delete and reinstall if they've moved (i.e. are now under a different name.) However, this should clear up any lingering library problems.
