 xorg-server port does depend on xorg-libraries through use of USE_XLIB 
 variable. Running commands from 'How-To-Repeat' section (with a small fix of 
 x11-server -> x11-servers of course) first installs xorg-libraries and then 
 proceeds with building and installing xorg-server here. Also ports build 
 cluster doesn't seem to complain about missing dependencies (you can check 
 for a build log here: 
 http://pointyhat.freebsd.org/errorlogs/i386-5-full-logs/)
 The proposed workaround would indeed cause havoc as you say as there is no 
 xorg-libraries executable installed by either of X11 libraries ports. Thus 
 every port that defines USE_XLIB would try to reinstall chosen X11 libraries 
 and fail if they would already be installed.
 All in all it seems that there is something wrong with your environment. You 
 can see on which port xorg-server depends by using 
 pretty-print-build-depends-list and pretty-print-run-depends-list make target 
 as descibed in ports(7). Both outputs should include xorg-libraries.
