 I've a couple of things to note here.
 
 This is not an issue with the xfce4 meta-package, specifically. Nor does
 it relate to Xfce packaging in general. The xfce4 meta-package builds
 successfully on NetBSD 9.0. (I've done so recently, and I haven't seen
 any failures noted in the bulk builds, either. My setup doesn't have
 anything special in mk.conf that would pertain to this build, and I
 imagine -- though I don't know for sure -- neither would the various
 bulk builds.)
 
 It's unclear to me whether this and pkg/54966 are effectively
 duplicates. Both appear to reflect specific local issues that are
 affecting X11-related packages, and neither are reproducible for me.
 (I'm using "base" X11 in all my NetBSD installations, never "modular".)
