Yes; the fifth-toe package contains *extra* gnome applications, and is
not required for gnome to work.

> Lastly (this may help you) BSD did not install X server when i installed the OS for some reason. so i installed it myself form the ports (XFree86-4) is there possibly a confilct between this and the XF86-3 components Gnome seems to have insatlled? Or is there some other packages from X server that need to be installed. 

Nothing uses XFree86 3.x any more.  Under 4.x the default is to use
XFree86 4.x; under 5.x it is to use x-org 6.x.
