I was also seeing when trying to rebuild phoenix to get AA font
support. My problem turned out to be old freetype files in
/usr/X11R6. I don't know why they weren't being deleted by the port
upgrade process.
I found them following the example in the pkg_which(1) manpage,
removed them (you'll also need to remove the dangling symlinks that
this may leave behind [1], or X ports may break at install-time
(mkhtmlindex doesn't like dangling symlinks)), rebuilt phoenix with
portupgrade -Rf phoenix, and now it works.

[1] I used the following script to find the dangling symlinks:
#!/bin/sh
for i in $(find $1 -type l); do
if [ ! -e $i/ ]; then
echo $i
fi
done
