X fails to build on Darwin

I got freetype to build, libxfont had another dep, fontconfig, which had another dep, libxml2. I installed both of those successfully, but libxfont fails to build. In a fit or rage I reformated in ufs, ufs fails to boot, so I went back to hfs+. So now I'm back at square one, but I have some experience now, so I'm a little better off. I have some ideas I can try out, im running Darwin in qemu so I can mess with it while I'm running linux at work. I've been looking at the GNU/Darwin project, and while I'm not interesting in running GNU/Darwin, they provide source for the packages installed on GNU/Darwin, including X11. So I'll try to install that. Also, according to wikipedia, portage has been ported to Darwin. I really like portage, so I'm going to look into that.
