Looking at this data I'd say you are trying to use an incorrect config:

You don't need to specify both the unison-nox11 port and the ocaml-nox11
port in the list of ports to be built.

Having OPTIONS_UNSET=X11 in make.conf you could ask for just net/unison
and poudriere, respecting the OPTIONS_UNSET will build both unison and
ocaml without any X11 support. In such a case you'd have a unison
package, not stating it is not supporting X11 but in fact it will have
no X11 binaries (this can be verified by looking into the package, which
is just a txz archive)

You can also request poudriere to build only net/unison-nox11, in such a
case you end up with both packages with "-nox11" in their name. I think
this is the best choice.

you could also request poudriere to build both net/unison-nox11 and
lang/ocaml and get the exact same result, but it is redundant, poudriere
will anyway build ocaml from lang/ocaml, respecting the OPTIONS_USET.

I can't apply your patch which would bring the port to be semantically
the same as before my last modification, because it would break another
legitimate and use, which is if you build any other port in the same run
which asks for unison-nox11(which requires lang/ocaml-nox11 with your
patch) and at the same time compiles some other ports depending on
lang/ocaml. This would ensue a duplicate origin error, with no
workaround for the user.

You can see this situation as a limitation of the framework, if you
like, but while there is an easy solution for you (just ask poudriere to
build only unison-nox11 with OPTIONS_UNSET=X11 in make.conf and it will
build and keep updated both unison-nox11 and ocaml-nox11), there is no
solution for the duplicate origin, unless other ports are modified,
which could also break even more things.
