Portupgrade failed for me, too; apparently somethings get built out of order --not that I blame portupgrade, XFree86-4.x is always a pain to install or upgrade; I fight it everytime I have to make changes. The solution for me (and posted by others recently on this list): build the clients first, and if that fails, build the libraries first, then the clients, then run portupgrade. Additionally, to save yourself yet another potential headache: if you are upgrading from and earlier version of XFree96-4 (not 3), save a copy of the XFree86config file somewhere safe where the new version can't overwrite it. I don't know that it would overwrite it, but the config can be such a pain, it's better to be safe than miserable.
