Cannot build glib2

[Kenneth Wolcott]

HI Josh;

  Is it possible to find out what ports that I have installed that
would fail to upgrade due to not supporting the M1 chip?  If, so what
command would I issue so that I could determine the risk involved of
doing that massive upgrade operation?

Thanks,
Ken Wolcott
