No, I just rebuilt 3 machines and didn't have any problems. I ended up running -rpuf on portupgrade a number of times before kde-3.0.4 was fully linked to all of the new mods. It seemed like there were new versions of everything and a -Rpuf would have been better :). There were too many ports at the same level as kde-3 and I thought moving up the tree towards kde was better than working the other way. I thought there was an easier way but never saw one. The builds were done on AMD 1600-2000 class machines and it never interfered with anything else.
