Is it okay if I change the few references of USE_PKGSRC_XFREE86 into
USE_PKGSRC_X?

Then I will make it like:

-	!empty(USE_PKGSRC_XFREE86:M[Yy][Ee][Ss])
+	!empty(USE_PKGSRC_X:M[Xx][Ff][Rr][Ee][Ee]*)

And ...
-        !empty(USE_PKGSRC_XFREE86:M[Nn][Oo])
+        !empty(USE_PKGSRC_X:M[Nn][Oo]*)


The reason is that I am using freedesktop.org xlibs. I am making a meta
package for xlibs. I have used it successfully to build a variety of
packages, like gle-3.1.0.

Later, my mk/buildlink2/bsd.buildlink2.mk then will use this
meta-package's buildlink2.mk instead of using the redundant x11-links.

I guess another idea would to use x11-links but have it provide a
xlibs.mk.

What do you think?

p.s. By the way, FreeBSD ports is now using xlibs for a lot too.

p.p.s. I have a libXmu package (needed by gle) to import to pkgsrc-wip
too.
