The Mesa bits included in XFree86 4.0.2 are a subset of the Mesa-3.2 port.
If you have XFree86 4.0.2 installed, you should define XFREE86_VERSION=4
in /etc/make.conf; then, the Mesa 3.2 port only installs the files not
included in XFree-4. Also, the ports which use the Xpm library do not
depend on the xpm port (XFree-4 includes Xpm).
Still there are some ports which have not been adapted to the
XFREE86_VERSION mechanism; one of these is x11-toolkits/xaw3d: its
Makefile checks for the existence of ${X11BASE}/XFree86 in order to
find out what XFree86 version is installed.
