It seems to want it itself but does that matter?  If a package A pulls
in a buildlink from package B doesn't it effectively pull in every
buildlink that package B does?  In other words, don't includes nest?

In this case I deleted /usr/pkg and /var/db/pkg* and built everything
from scratch.  I then removed fontconfig, p5-PerlMagick and everything
that I was required to by pkg_delete and rebuilt p5-PerlMagick.

Nope.  Native all along.
