Chicken and egg

[Steven Friedrich]

I've been having trouble with X11 ports, so I deleted all my packages 
and tried to install xorg fresh.

xorg port failed trying to build cairo, cairo failed because it couldn't 
build libdrm, libdrm failed because cairo's headers weren't installed.

So in summary, I can't install cairo because it wants to build libdrm, 
which won't build/install because it wants cairo.

And I tried to install packages or the X11 distro from the ftp site and 
also from my 7.2 RC-1 media.  I tried setting the Options for "any" as 
well as RELEASE_7_2_0, to no avail.  My system is up and running 
multi-user, so sysinstall failed to install any packages.

I built cairo with make -k install, so it would brute force past the 
error, and after that I built libdrm and cairo again with portupgrade 
-fr libdrm cairo.
