qmailadmin update
For those of you using qmailadmin please update it ASAP. The autorespond binary has moved from /usr/local/bin to /usr/bin on 7.x series. I am not sure about 8.x as I am not running it on any production boxes. 8.1 does look promising though.

php5 change
Hello,
The php5 committer has changed the way pcre works with php and a few other things. Primarily pcre is now part of the php5 base. Here is what /usr/ports/UPDATING says about it:

As of php 5.3, a few extensions were removed from or included into the core
php5 package. Follow the steps below to update your installation.
1) Delete the following packages (if installed):
- php5-dbase
- php5-ncurses
- php5-pcre
- php5-spl
- php5-ming
- php5-mhash
What I have found through tril and error is writing down the output of pkg_info | grep php and copying it to notepad or your favorite text editor and then do pkg_delete -r php-5.x.x (x.x meaning the version of php you are running) and then reinstalling php5, the php5-extensions and also squirrelmail (if applicable). Then check your output and see if it matches your pasted output.
2) Rebuild php5 and all ports depending on it.
What you need to do to fix this is run the following after deinstalling the ports above (using pkg_delete -r packagename)
# cd /usr/ports/lang/php5 && make deinstall && make reinstall
and (If applicable)
# cd /usr/ports/lang/php5-entensions && make deinstall && make reinstall
