Perhaps this could help: There's a patch of 4.4.99.21 snapshot ports that applies to current ports tree: http://www.ijs.si/~lesi/xfree/XFsnap-4.4.99.21_2.diff It's missing some fixes to plists, but should work (I'm using it now). It also patches print/freetype2 as freetype upgrade is needed to compile the snapshot ports. I can generate packages a bit later when I'll update this to 4.4.99.22 snapshot and fix plists. If you need them, tell me for which FreeBSD version and which platform.
