Thanks for the idea.  This is what I ended up doing since it caused
the least disruption.

There are still a few loose issues, like what to do about the two
different libXrender.so libs kicking around, one in /usr/pkg/lib and
one in /usr/X11R6/lib .  I can't tell if pkgsrc would have tried to
avoid this duplication if I rebuilt it from pkg_chck (or something
similar).
