>Description:

  Installed FreeBSD 4.10 on a virgin system, selected the XFree86 package
during installation.  Ran the xf86Config script after installation completed
to setup X server on system.  Was able to run X with "startx" and open
xterms with no problem.
  Exited X and proceeded to install /usr/ports/XFree86-aoutlibs with make
install, that appeared to work fine.
  Attempted to restart X and the server aborted with an error message
from the xterms that were autostarted as to how they couldn't find
libfreetype.so.9
	
>How-To-Repeat:
  See description
	
>Fix:
  Changed to /usr/ports/print/freetype2 and ran "make install".  After it
built it errored saying freetype2 had already been installed.  Ran 
make deinstall then make install to get it installed.  I had to also do a
make deinstall and make install in /usr/ports/textproc/expat2 because
that is a dependency of freetype2.

  Note that XFree86-aoutlibs is a requirement for the native FreeBSD binary
of Netscape Communicator 4.76 available from ftp.netscape.com

  Perhaps it might have just been that the aoutlib port was wrecking
ldconfig's list of hists?  I didn't check for this.  The current hints
list shows /usr/local/lib/libfreetype.so.9
