I had a similar problem with firefox locking up if I visited certain web
pages or opened a certain dialog box. Firefox got stuck in kserel as well.

Apparently portupgrade doesn't always work well enough.

What I ended up doing was deleting all ports, updating my ports tree,

solution is
portupgrade -ufr pkg-config
