Well, I guess the only reason gd-1.8.x port is remaind in ports tree is gd-2.0.x was unstable developmental version. At now. gd-2.0.15 is announced as stable release, graphics/gd2 port should be retired immidiately and every ports depending on it have to switch dependency to graphics/gd. In addition, most ports actually require gd-1.8.x (or older) code have already been containing it as internal library. Furthermore, gd-1.8.x port and gd-2.0.x was not be able to co-exist safely. If there is still any paticular reason to remain gd-1.8.x port, we'll have to modify its library name etc.
