And libSM is not mentioned in the OP's pkg_info, which it should be. Also:
x11/libSM/files/patch-src_sm_genid.c
eliminates libuuid dependencies by using the base uuid(3), which has existed 
since 2002.

As far as I can tell, your ports-mgmt software has been overprotecting this 
dependency.
Of course, there's a more valid conflict with net/samba3+WITH_DNS_UPDATE.
