I had this problem after Xft update too.  Pan didn't work anymore, it 
told me not to find Xft2.

I just linked this files, and Pan works good.

martin% pwd
/usr/X11R6/lib
martin% ls -l *Xft*
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel     11 Feb 18 12:57 libXft.so -> libXft.so.2
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  64024 Feb 18 12:57 libXft.so.2
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel      9 Feb 18 13:00 libXft2.so -> libXft.so
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel     11 Feb 18 13:00 libXft2.so.2 -> 
libXft.so.2

I know, it's not correct, but it works for now.  Maybe Xft - port must 
be patched to install libXft2 instead of libXft, but I don't really 
know.
