One would ask as to why xorg has failed to compile, and it appears no
one else here has experienced the same issue; hence the reason I
suggested a clean removal of installed ports and a vanilla compile of
it.

I've updated my ports from the cvs, and haven't experienced an xorg
compilation issue - I compile from the standard /usr/ports/x11/xorg
location, and I don't see to suffer the same issues - co-incidence or
simply being boring with the locating of things has saved me from
compilation problems?
