Thats because doing a XFree86-4 build out of the FreeBSD ports tree 
dies in
the libs directory.

Why not, almost once a day I find myself stopping by some-ones desk and 
spending
5 minutes or so cleaning up structure name changes so kde will build 
correctly for

little graphical
things like top, these can be unhooked from the build and everything 
rolls along
nicely...
