Short result: nothing changed
Long result:
	Well, i've rebuild all my ports and they are really linked now with 
latest versions of libs, but kmail still crashes. Making 
libc.so.6->libc.so.5 in libmap.conf fixes the problem, but it's not our 
way.
Any other ideas?

P.S. i can provide old and new results of libchk (~3MB if unpacked) and 
ldd if you need
