And you were saying?  :-)

Of the above, only XFree86-4-fontDefaultBitmaps is missing, and
this is the reason for no metapackage built yet.  I am not sure
what's going on there... fontDefaultBitmaps builds with the
latest port I have here.  :-)

This is a problem when someone has something already installed, I
think.. I'd need to see such a machine with the problem before
coming up with a solution.

One guy had nothing XFree86 installed (except -documents) but was
still allowed to build XFree86-4-clients, which requires
-libraries.  I think that particular problem is the "using a file
to check deps" weakness of ports tree.  I don't know of any
usable solution for this particular problem, except maybe "rm -f
/usr/X11R6/lib/libX11*", then removing the workdir for -clients
and retrying the build (should invoke -libraries that way).

Another potential reason for problems that people are having may
be due to the inability of ports to detect older versions that
must be removed prior to testing dependencies, which is slightly
dependent on the previous problem.
