 When building the giflib port with the variant no_x11 using:
 > port install giflib +no_x11

 the result differs from that one, I'd expect. Looking at the dependencies
 of the compiled giflib, I get:
 > otool -L /opt/local/lib/libgif.4.1.6.dylib
 /opt/local/lib/libgif.4.1.6.dylib:
         /opt/local/lib/libgif.4.dylib
         /opt/local/lib/libX11.6.dylib
         /opt/local/lib/libXau.6.dylib
         /opt/local/lib/libXdmcp.6.dylib
         /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib
         /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib

 As you can see, the X11-bindings are still present, although the
   /opt/local/lib/libSM.6.dylib  and
   /opt/local/lib/libICE.6.dylib
 bindings have disappeared.

 If I build the giflib on my own using
 >./configure --prefix=/opt/local/ --without-x --without-sm ,
 I will get the right results (a dylib without any references to x11) so I
 tried to edit the portfile itself like this:

 variant no_x11 {
         depends_lib-delete      port:xorg-libsm
         depends_lib-delete      port:xorg-libX11
         configure.args-append   --without-x
         configure.args-append   --without-sm
 }

 However, this also didn't work ... I would be very grateful for any help!
