Solved. It seems like using a mix of packages and ports is not always a
good thing. To re-install all ports I used
portmaster -P `cat my-installed-ports-list`
However there is an entry in ports/UPDATING about x11/xcb-util which
requires a lot of ports to be rebuild and maybe the corresponding
packages were not updated?
Anyhow, I found out by installing fluxbox to have a wm for firefox and
claws-mail. The latter wouldn't start and led me to libxcb-aux.0.so
Sorry for the noise.
