Sure, but you would never run into having the wrong version of ifconfig, because it's not distributed through ports, it's in in the same repo as the kernel, so they are distributed together.

Yep, I believe that is consistent with my earlier comment :-).

What is awesome with FreeBSD is when you can do a

rm -Rf /var/db/pkg/* /usr/local/* /usr/ports/distfiles/*

reboot the system and all the non OS packages (installed via ports and packages) are gone and you can start over (reboot is probably optional).
