I encountered this as well.  Fired up xterm from a command line
(within Emacs, which did work still) and it couldn't load some
library, possibly libXft.so.1 ? IIRC libXft.so.2 did exist but that's
not what xterm was looking for. 

I also had "rxvt" installed (from ports) and that worked fine so I
used that to su and rebuild X11, first the server, then the clients,
from ports.
