thanks a lot,
the 'OVERRIDE_LINUX_NONBASE_PORTS' seems to be what i was missing.
In particular, i still had some f4 ports installed.

After setting OVERRIDE_LINUX_NONBASE_PORTS,
I did a manual "portupgrade -f ... " on the linux ports,
and then 'portupgrade -o ..." on some of the many ports which
were still not updated . I am not sure what subset needs to
be up to date, but bringing in linux-f8-alsa-lib-1.0.15_1
seemed to do the job. These are my linux ports now:

> ls -d linux*
linux-cairo-1.0.2_2                     linux-jpeg-6b.34_2
linux-expat-1.95.8_2                    linux-libsigc-2.0.17_2
linux-f8-alsa-lib-1.0.15_1              linux-libxml2-2.6.19_2
linux-f8-atk-1.20.0_1                   linux-nvu-1.0_1
linux-f8-openssl-0.9.8b_1               linux-pango-1.10.2_3
linux-flashplugin-9.0r159               linux-png-1.2.8_4
linux-fontconfig-2.2.3_9                linux-tiff-3.7.1_2
linux-gdk-pixbuf-0.22.0.18.fc4.2_2      linux-xorg-libs-6.8.2_7
linux-gtk2-2.6.10_3                     linux_base-f8-8_11
linux-hicolor-icon-theme-0.5_3          linux_dri-7.0_1
