I'm sorry but the settings don't make sense. "X11_TYPE=modular" means you want 
use
X11 from "pkgsrc" in which case you don't need "MKX11=YES". I would also 
recommend
not to set "X11FLAVOUR" to allow the build to pick the preferred (and supported)
X11 distribution for your platform.

Please also use "-A" and make sure that you updated "src" and "xsrc" with the 
same options.

Yes.
