>Description:

I tried to rebuild my packages from scratch, when it reaches Xrender and
Xft2 dependencies it chooses to build and install the pkgsrc versions of
these libs.  This is despite the fact that I have versions of these libs
that satisfy the dependencies for these packages and I have both

PREFER_NATIVE=          yes
PREFER_PKGSRC=          no

set in my mk.conf.  I don't know if this is due to pkgsrc's inability to
detect my native versions of these libs or some other problem.

>How-To-Repeat:
make in multimedia/mplayer (or anything else that might depend on Xft2 and
Xrender)
