Was just a hunch that perhaps a stray libXext lib got installed and was linked
to the wrong place... but I guess not :(

Perhaps find out what installs that library and try removing it?  See if
your install sees it not installed and attempts to install it again?  No
doubt there are a whole bunch of ports that rely on it though ;/

Not much help I'm afraid, good luck anyway.
