I have the understanding the the x-libraries are added statically. I did the 
pkg_delete and then added xorg back in.  Lots of broken dependancies when you 
do it individually. The links for XFree86 and xorg are different.  It seemed 
like forever before I could do a 
"portupgrade -rf xorg-libraries" and have it actually build everything.

The other problem I am having is with KDE. With xorg, KDE has lost track of 
xdb, your keyboard and layouts. It got to the point on 4.10-stable that all I 
could type in konsole showed up like "?? ??? ?" and etc. In other utilities, 
they were all greek letters. I went back to XFree86 to get things working 
again.
