I don't think many users are actually using the +system_x11 variant as
we never recommend to use it. And those who use it are also reading the
macports-dev list - at least I hope so ;-)

I looked through the patch and it looks good to me. No objections.

I noticed that many ports now need
  configure.args --x-include=${prefix}/include --x-lib=${prefix}/lib
Maybe we could add some macro to add these in a simpler fashion?

Thanks for your work on the X11 part, Jeremy!
