I think something is messed up in your ports tree. There was a circular
dependency in Xft and XFree86-clients that was fixed a few weeks ago.
Make sure you have the latest Xft port (2.1_7).

No it doesn't. Look at the port. It only LIB_DEPENDS on freetype2 and
expat. Neither of which require gtk12. Here is the make
package-depends from fontconfig:
freetype2-2.1.4:print/freetype2
expat-1.95.6_1:textproc/expat2
pkgconfig-0.15.0:devel/pkgconfig
Doesn't look circular to me.

No it doesn't. I think you're running into the fixed Xft loop. Please
cvsup your ports tree again, and let me know if the problem persists.
