By the way, my first problem (as documented in the wip/XFree86/README)
was:

.  if defined(USE_X11) && !exists(${X11BASE})
PKG_FAIL_REASON+= "${PKGNAME} uses X11, but ${X11BASE} not found"
.  endif

So I just made it echo the message and continue along, since the XFree86
packages will create X11BASE.

Then to make it install I skipped the x11-links with:

USE_X11BASE?=   YES
USE_X11_LINKS=  NO # not needed because these packages provide their own
XFREE_BUILDLINK2_MK=    NO
