If X is on the machine, and you do make WITHOUT_GTK=yes then it will build the port in the command line version. If X is not on the machine install as a command line util. That's how it works on my systems. Part of the confusion is that mtr is NOT just a simple command line program. It is a command line program that also will work within X using the GTK toolkit.
