I just noticed I've got the same problem, and reinstalled all the
ports from scratch after the jpeg, qt4 and kde4 update. The KDE's
wallpaper chooser says "0x0" for most images sizes, and I also lost
the album thumbnails in amarok. I'll investigate that later, that was
just my 2 cents to say that's maybe not related to a bad ports update.
Maybe a problem for qt like there was for gtk and jpeg-7
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=588740).
