>Description:
Port build and install is apparently successful, but afterwards there is no sign of libxcb-atom.so.1, libxcb-aux.so.0, and libxcb-event.so.1 or any other version of those shared libraries.  As a result, the dependency packages do not work.

I'm not sure if the port intends to build these shared libraries or succeeds in building them if they were meant to be built.  There is nothing of note about xcb-util in /usr/ports/UPDATING, either.

There are a few warnings emitted by the build:
