I am not sure. My installed version of xcursor-1.1.1nb2 depends fixesext.
But I don't see it as a BUILD_DEPENDS either when using:

bmake show-var VARNAME=BUILD_DEPENDS

x11/xcursor's includes ../../x11/Xfixes/buildlink3.mk which includes 
fixesext.

My main concern was buildlink3.mk files that include 
fixesext's buildlink3.mk (which was not a "build" dependency).
