Just a couple of quick notes on this since I rebuilt the whole thing
yesterday from the SVN repository at
https://trillian.chruetertee.ch/svn/ports/trunk ..

1) On my x86 Core Duo, the updated x11/libXxf86dga Makefile contains
more -Werror compilation flags causing it to fail with ..

===>  Building for libXxf86dga-1.1.3
Making all in src
make  all-am
  CC     XF86DGA.lo
XF86DGA.c: In function 'XF86cleanup':
XF86DGA.c:651: warning: function might be possible candidate for
attribute 'noreturn'
  CC     XF86DGA2.lo
XF86DGA2.c: In function 'DGAMapPhysical':
XF86DGA2.c:931: error: cast from pointer to integer of different size

Stop in /usr/ports/x11/libXxf86dga/work/libXxf86dga-1.1.3/src.
*** [all] Error code 1

2) The (port) version number on x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard is the
same (1.6.1) which means that 'portupgrade -a' won't catch it. This
leaves you with a keyboard driver with a version mismatch to the new
server - one that won't load. A recompile of this driver is required.

Having resolved than these locally, my ~6 year old laptop now has all
the associated eye-candy with the new X-server; compositing, blurring
and all :-)

Thanks!
