I'm afraid I'm still having these problems with all of the
xorg-{something}server ports, even after a forced reinstall
of freetype2. For example, when I tried the latest xorg upgrade,
I died on:

/usr/ports/x11-servers/xorg-nestserver/work/xc/lib/font/libXfont.a(ftfuncs.o): In function `FreeTypeAddProperties':

Stop in /usr/ports/x11-servers/xorg-nestserver/work/xc/programs/Xserver.

[etc.]

I am able to install these as packages, and everything seems to be
working neatly. However I'd love to figure out why this is happening.

Anyone else having these problems? Anything else I can try to reinstall
to help?
