Most of these problems should go away once you update to packages linking against the new libraries. These should hit the mirrors in the coming days. In the meantime rebuild and reinstall ('make repackage' and 'make reinstall') the ports you can't live without. In general, when following current watch out for big library commits (especially those changing shlib_version files) and hold off on updating for a couple days unless you are sure you know what you are doing.
