I found it. I think you need to reset the options on libcdio to
re-enable the cdparanoia option. Some gnome ports seem to depend on
the library specifically with the paranoia option, and I've seen some
systems get the options jammed.
Something like:
(cd /usr/ports/sysutils/libcdio ; make rmconfig ; portupgrade -f libcdio)
