hi Kris,
I repeated my tests with a new machine.  I did a 

portinstall -pP php5-gd

and , as it should, it installed xorg-libraries without  any issue at all. 

the only difference is that this time 
1) there have been a few port updates to the tree

2) I had already pre-built all the packages needed ( /usr/ports is mounted over nfs to the machine that has the packages)

Maybe one of this made a difference. Anyway, all as it should be :) 

thanks again for your help and time , now and every other time :)
B
