Thats a lot of XFree86 users. If I recall correctly all of the ports
which do not build Xservers have subsequently been switched to Xorg.

On current the test is inverted and:

.if \
    ${MACHINE} == "acorn32"     || \
    ${MACHINE} == "alpha"       || \
    ${MACHINE} == "amiga"       || \
    ${MACHINE} == "ews4800mips" || \
    ${MACHINE} == "mac68k"      || \
    ${MACHINE} == "newsmips"    || \
    ${MACHINE} == "pmax"        || \
    ${MACHINE} == "sun3"        || \
    ${MACHINE} == "x68k"
X11FLAVOUR?=    XFree86
.else
X11FLAVOUR?=    Xorg
.endif

Is anyone working on moving any of the remaining XFree86 using ports to Xorg?
