The fluxbox-devel is no longer depend on XFree86-client. As for fluxbox will be remove too when maintainer approves or fluxbox-devel merges into fluxbox when 1.0 is released. A question, how would you like me to deal with the libXrender? The x11/gcursor, my port, will need the libXrender if xorg is installed. It doesn't need this if XFree86-lib is installed. If you already have this plan, then nevermind and I will wait. Thanks for your works!
