You're welcome. When you update to xorg-7.3 start with both of those 
commented out. That very well could break your update as xorg will 
expect to install in /usr/local. Make sure you follow the directions 
in UPDATING including the mergebase.sh or it's foot shooting time :-)

If you start getting the same error, change the X11BASE to /usr/local
