I updated my Xcode tools, but that did not fix the problem.  It turns out that
libcairo was linked against /usr/X11R6/lib/libfontconfig (which is from Apple
and appears to be version 1.something) and libpangocairo was linked against
/usr/pkg/lib/libfontconfig (v2.4.2nb2).  Since gqview (and others) are linked
against libcairo and libpangocairo, the fontconfig version conflict was
apparently the cause of the crash at startup.

I don't know how libcairo and libpangocairo ended up in this state and I'm not
sure why things were working fine until I updated gtk2, but both cairo and
pango build against pkgsrc libfontconfig now.  I am in the process of
rebuilding the packages that depend on cairo and pango.  So far, the rebuilt
packages are working.
