I'd like to propose setting X11_TYPE=modular for NetBSD. It is 
convenient to have packages for X11 that don't depend on a base system. 
It is convenient to be able to upgrade or maintain individual 
dependencies. I think that users of xsrc can still use their X server 
and installed X without much problem of using binary packages built with 
X11_TYPE=modular.
