Hello list, 

I've been trying to upgrade XFree86 4.1 to 4.2 this afternoon. 
Things went really out of hand at some point. I don't know ex-
actly what happened (portupgrade, portinstall, build errors, 
pkgdb -F, etc etc etc) but X got deinstalled. Whatever. I'm up
to doing a clean reinstall, and when building the whole thing with

portinstall XFree86       

What surprised me was that there was no script anymore, asking if
I'd like to install xdm, some fonts or whatever else. No idea about
that. But what really confuses me is the following error I get when
building the thing:

===>  Configuring for XFree86-font100dpi-4.2.0
(cd /usr/ports/x11-fonts/XFree86-4-font100dpi/work/xc/fonts/encodings &&  imake -DUseInstalled -DPro

ke includes ;  make depend)

ake includes ;  make depend)
make: don't know how to make /usr/X11R6/bin/ucs2any.pl. Stop
*** Error code 2

Really bad formatting, sorry. Hope it is still somehow readable.
What the hell is this ucs2any thing? What has it got to do with
anything? I can do whatever I want, this does not go away. Perhaps
it has something to do with the following error I got before the 
whole thing got out of control:

/usr/bin/install -c -m 0755 xon.sh /usr/X11R6/bin/xon
install in programs/scripts done
installing in programs/glxinfo...
rm -f glxinfo
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../../exports/lib cc -o glxinfo  -ansi -pedantic -Dasm=__asm -Wall -Wpointer-arith

/usr/libexec/elf/ld: cannot find -lGLU
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/x11/XFree86-4-clients/work/xc/programs/glxinfo.
*** Error code 1

I am completely out of ideas, no clue what this is about. Never seen
it before. I am there now with a messed up dependency database, no X
whatsoever and really frustrated. portupgrade is great, but somehow I
managed to screw up big time. Even vim is gone, giving me an error like
"/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libgtk12.so.2" not found".

Anyone got any ideas? I am sorry for the length of this post, I am sorry
for my English, and for the little information I can give. I am running 
4.5-STABLE from March 13 by the way. Hope someone even read this.

Any help is _really_ appreciated.
TIA
regards
