I ran into this problem too (please see mail in ports@ with title
"X.org, dlopen and -current". I saw this:

dlopen: /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libbitmap.so: Undefined symbol
"FontFileBitmapSources"

This happened after the latest xorg-server security patches. I think
the maintainer is still trying to find out what is happening.
