Delete /usr/ports/x11*. If you're tracking the ports tree from cvs,
set up your refuse file - or whatever mechanism is similar for what
you're using - so you don't reload them. That'll do the job.

You should also set "WITHOUT_X" in /etc/make.conf. That will cause
ports that can be built both with and without X to build without X. At
least, the ones that follow that convention will do so.
