Best fix:
rm /usr/X11R6
touch /usr/X11R6
chflags schg /usr/X11R6
/sbin/ldconfig -m /usr/local/lib (just to force the linker to re-read the
dupes).
As a bonus, the old apps you still have pointing to /usr/X11R6 will now
complain and be exposed and anything that wants to install or modify
something in /usr/X11R6 will be exposed too.
I've done this about a week after I upgraded and it solved all the linux
linker problems and only one app I had compiled from source rather then using
a port, wasn't working anymore. Recompiled and no problemo.

Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules
and never get to the software part.
