There's no problem: my comment was that if you want dependencies to be
rebuilt automatically when you upgrade a port, you had better use a
tool which rebuilds dependencies automatically when you upgrade a port
(like portupgrade) :-)

If you just do 'make all install clean' in
/usr/ports/x11/XFree86-4-server, then yes, it's going to break the
wrapper port which depends on it.
