If I'm not mistaken 2.2.6-RELEASE has the same behaviour -- I once wanted to install the X packages too and, after selecting bin,docs,man,src and choosing the X servers and additional packages and after rebooting I realised that everything but X was installed; after this, when I tried /stand/sysinstall, it did install the X packages but without any pre-/post- installation scripts, it didn't run ldconfig on /usr/X11R6/lib.
