Ok..  seeing as actions speak louder than words, I'd like to submit the
following change to bsd.pkg.mk:

This provides the following:
rigel# make
===>  tk-8.0p2 uses X11, but /usr/X11R6 not found.

with this patch to tk80's Makefile:

Trying this on my machine with X installed it into /usr/pkg, as is correct.

This neccesitates the change to other pkgs,  for example, xneko:

This change only needs to take place on pkgs which _only_ specify USE_X11, and
really, really want to be installed into the X11 tree.  (a descision I do not
attempt to make here.)

If this is acceptable, I will submit a patch which adds the USE_XBASE= yes to
all pkgs that have a USE_X11=yes, and fix *all* the current broken tk and X11
dependencies.  Additionally, this allows people to build X11 dependent pkgs
(xemacs anyone?) and install them in /usr/pkg.  (however, USE_IMAKE is an
allways lose situation without pkgwedge)

Opinions?
