This may have happened during the > Xft removal/upgrade stage of portupgrade. I had the same problem when upgrading my XF86 to 4.3.0 over the weekend. XFt is a prerequisite for a bunch of stuff, so it was installed on my machine along with XFree86-4.2.0. However, XFree86-4.2.0 had already installed its own version of libXft and the include files, so the Xft port installed on top of the XFree86-4.2.0 versions of those files. When I tried to upgrade to XFree86-4.3.0, *something* blew away the Xft files, because 'portversion' thought that the Xft package was still installed, even though the actual library and include files were missing. I'm guessing that when the XFree86-4.2.0 port is removed, it also removes the new Xft files.
