x11/wrapper lib-depends on x11/XFree86-4-libraries, which run-depends
on devel/imake-4. :)
I'd recommend installing the x11*/XFree86-4-* ports (w/ devel/imake-4)
instead of the one big port (x11/XFree86-4) to avoid causing
dependency problems.
I personally believe that the XFree86-4 port should immediately be
changed to a meta port of those reasonably and conveniently divided
XFree86-4-* ports, but the maintainers do not seem to feel like doing
it somehow. ;)
