Some oddities in this case might be if (I don't know how and why)
XFree86-clients-4.2.0_2 hasn't install correctly and 'make' for some
obvious reasons tries to continue meta-port building.

By the way, as of ports tree from July, 17 XFree86-clients-4.2.0_2 does have
a problem with build/installation -- glxinfo doesn't link because 'make'
tries to use 'cc' for linking instead of 'c++', and libGLU is a C++ library.
After manual 'Makefile' editing all is O.K., yesterday I checked it by
building X libraries, X clients and X 100dpi fonts using appropriate ports.

JFYI: some ports are "broken-on-usage" because of linker issue. For example,
if you try to build mod_php4 with pspell support, it builds and links, but,
of course, doesn't work:

Syntax error on line 277 of /usr/contrib/etc/apache2/httpd.conf:
Cannot load /usr/contrib/libexec/apache2/libphp4.so into server: /usr/contrib/li
b/libpspell.so.4: Undefined symbol "_ZTV8ifstream"

Sure, 'cc', as a C compiler driver, knows nothing about C++ I/O streams. :)
