Proactive???   

cd /usr/ports/x11/lesstif
make
===>  lesstif-0.83 : You have an old file (/usr/local/include/tk.h) that
could cause problems for some ports to compile. Please remove it and try
again. You may have to reinstall tk from the ports tree afterwards.

pkg_delete tk-8.0.2
pkg_delete: package `tk-8.0.2' is required by these other packages
and may not be deinstalled:
tkman-2.0.5
tkinfo-2.1
tkcvs-6.0
gimp-0.99.18

This cascades into a pandora's box of de-installing/re-installing
several perfecting fine working utilities just to install a new port that
has nothing to do with tk/tcl.

After reading bsd.port.mk, I recognized I could define NO_IGNORE.
Unfortunately, I haven't analyzed the potential side effects of
NO_IGNORE with respect to this section of bsd.port.mk

.if !defined(NO_IGNORE)
.if (defined(IS_INTERACTIVE) && defined(BATCH))
IGNORE= "is an interactive port"
.elif (!defined(IS_INTERACTIVE) && defined(INTERACTIVE))
IGNORE= "is not an interactive port"
.elif (defined(REQUIRES_MOTIF) && !defined(HAVE_MOTIF))
IGNORE= "requires Motif"
.elif (defined(MOTIF_ONLY) && !defined(REQUIRES_MOTIF))
IGNORE= "does not require Motif"
.elif (defined(NO_CDROM) && defined(FOR_CDROM))
IGNORE= "may not be placed on a CDROM: ${NO_CDROM}"
.elif (defined(RESTRICTED) && defined(NO_RESTRICTED))
IGNORE= "is restricted: ${RESTRICTED}"
.elif (defined(USE_X11) && !exists(${X11BASE}))
IGNORE= "uses X11, but ${X11BASE} not found"
.elif defined(BROKEN)
IGNORE= "is marked as broken: ${BROKEN}"
.endif
