Comment:

 I thought the use_configure no overrode the use_autoreconf yes.
 Interesting....

 As for xeyes, luit, etc... they're not going to have +system_x11 variants.

 What is xeyes trying to put in /usr/X11 ?  xeyes doesn't have any app-
 defaults ... ditto for many others.  The only app-defaults that you should
 see are:

 {{{
 Bitmap
 Bitmap-color
 Bitmap-nocase
 Chooser
 Clock-color
 Editres
 Editres-color
 KOI8RXTerm
 UXTerm
 Viewres
 XCalc
 XCalc-color
 XClipboard
 XClock
 XClock-color
 XConsole
 XFontSel
 XLoad
 XLogo
 XLogo-color
 XMore
 XSm
 XTerm
 XTerm-color
 Xditview
 Xditview-chrtr
 Xedit
 Xedit-color
 Xfd
 Xgc
 Xmag
 Xman
 Xmessage
 Xmessage-color
 Xmh
 }}}

 The app-defaults dir is determined by this in configure.ac:
 appdefaultdir=$(pkg-config --variable=appdefaultdir xt)
 AC_SUBST(appdefaultdir)

 We'll need to update those to allow an envvar or configure option to
 override it.  Of course if you have +system_x11, you probably don't need
 or want these x11-apps since you have them in $x11prefix already... and if
 you wanted them in MacPorts, you probably don't have +system_x11 set...
 because of this unlikelyhood, I'm going to drop this priority.  The other
 issues have been fixed in svn.

 Thanks.
