I tried installing the modular libX11, which should be good enough to
work. That could be done without installing more modular X dependencies
than I already had anyway. However, pkgsrc was too clever to let me use
it. Configure still failed in the same way, even though I now had
/usr/pkg/lib/pkgconfig/x11-xcb.pc. 

I even tried being clever and "temporarily" change the value of
${X11_TYPE}, like so, but that didn't help either:

X11_TYPE_startup-notification := ${X11_TYPE}
X11_TYPE := modular
.include "../../x11/libX11/buildlink3.mk"
X11_TYPE := ${X11_TYPE_startup-notification}

Any other ideas to force the use of modular libX11 as a replacement of
the native one?
