I know. I will never 'rebuild all ports', I don't think that's Right Thing.

I've upgraded once from 4.11-STABLE to 6.0-RELEASE (binary upgrade
over existing system) and all ports worked nice, including X, brousers etc.
The only problem was a change of locale on-disk format that had simple workaround.

I still have a.out binaries built under 2.2.8 running
under production 4.11-STABLE, they run just fine.
Modern operating system just have to offer binary backwards
compatibility for user-level, IMHO.

I have backups and when 'the same thing' happen again for a library
I forgot to move to lib/compat, I'll restore it there and continue
to use it.
