 *   Added:       x11/XFree86/patches  patch-aa
 *   Log:
 *   Link dynamically with libtcl from /usr/lib if XF86Setup is compiled.

Cool cool.

 *   Modified:    x11/XFree86/scripts  configure
 *   Log:
 *   Try to detect if tk4.x is present in /usr/local so that XF86Setup can
 *   be compiled.

This looks fine, except libtk version 4.1 is called "libtk41.so.*",
not "libtk4.1.so.*". ;)  (Ousterhout changed the naming convention
between 4.0 and 4.1.)

I think we shouldn't go out of our way to try to support many versions
at once (it's not going to work anyway).  There is only one tk in the
FreeBSD ports tree (tk-3.6 and 4.0 are going to be deleted soon), I
think we should just make it assume it's tk-4.1 or else.

If this was any other port, I'd be yelling LIB_DEPENDS but since (1)
this has NO_PACKAGE set, and (2) there's going to be a major chicken
and egg problem if the user starts on a fresh system by building this
port ;), so I won't go that far.
