One possibility is to create a port that installs a patched source
tree into /usr/X11R6/src/${PORTVERSION}, and have the other ports
BUILD_DEPEND on it and lndir(1) the source code into their WRKDIR.
This would have the added advantage of eliminating the current mess
with random xorg ports nicking patches from eachother.
