Well, new ports shouldn't be reinstalling XFree86 things if you've got all the xorg bits installed. But to really clean up the mess, we need a switch in bsd.port.mk, respected by those ports that currently depend on XFree86 bits, to depend on x.org instead. Unfortunately my time at the moment is filled with work and preparing for usenix, so I can't do it quite yet. I invite anyone to beat me to it.
