Failure message when inconsistent X11_TYPE



I submitted PR pkg/56299 because I encountered a failure with a misconfigured sandbox (I set --without-x instead of --without-xsrc). But the problem is not really related to mksandbox. Actually, X11_TYPE is set by default to native even if the xbase set is not installed. As discussed with David Holland, it doesn't seem reasonable to conditionally set X11_TYPE to modular in case of xbase is not installed. But maybe we could fail with an explicit message in this particular case.

Is there any objection to such a commit?
