The only options are:
glib - selected
opengl - unselected
X11 - selected
xcb - selected

I think the problem is the lack of port cairo-quartz-font:

# cat /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/pango/work/pango-1.34.1/config.log |grep 
quartz
configure:18477: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "cairo-quartz-font >= 
$cairo_required"
Package cairo-quartz-font was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `cairo-quartz-font.pc'
Package 'cairo-quartz-font', required by 'world', not found
