I suggest you install the metaport (from packages , much faster : portinsta=
ll -pP xorg ) and then delete what you dont need.

if you check xfce + gdm dependencies you'll see they depend on xorg-librari=
es, not xorg, which makes sense - you may want to run your display on a rem=
ote machine - u need xfce + the libraries locally, and xorg in the box with=
the video card and monitor.
