To do that you need to install full Xorg using pkgsrc. In other words,
pkgsrc cannot build a single Xorg driver without first switching to
the modular Xorg from pkgsrc.

In some version of X the driver name was changed from i810 to intel,
perhaps this is just fallout of that change and setting the driver
name in the X configuration would work.
