On the machine I have still running xorg 6.9, I see:

rot13# cd /usr/X11R6; find . -type f -o -type l | sort > /tmp/x
rot13# cd /usr/local; find . -type f -o -type l | sort > /tmp/l
rot13# comm -1 -2 /tmp/l /tmp/x
./man/man3/Object.3.gz
./man/whatis
./share/applications/mimeinfo.cache
./share/gnome/applications/mimeinfo.cache
./share/mime/XMLnamespaces
./share/mime/aliases
./share/mime/globs
./share/mime/magic
./share/mime/mime.cache
./share/mime/subclasses

I think most of these are OK (i.e. do not need to be resolved); maybe
a whitelist of not-actually-conflicts would be useful to weed them
out.

The first one is a real conflict though:

rot13# ls -l /usr/X11R6/man/man3/Object.3.gz  /usr/local/man/man3/Object.3.gz
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  1195 Sep 26  2006 /usr/X11R6/man/man3/Object.3.gz
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel  4850 Mar 29 15:41 /usr/local/man/man3/Object.3.gz
rot13# pkg_which /usr/X11R6/man/man3/Object.3.gz /usr/local/man/man3/Object.3.gz
[Updating the pkgdb <format:bdb_btree> in /var/db/pkg ... - 287 packages found (-0 +1) . done]
open-motif-2.2.3_2
tcl-8.4.14_4,1

i.e. those ports now conflict when both in LOCALBASE.
