Like I said, the problem goes away when I downgrade the port.

I don't know too much about font config files and never edited
them manually; I've just started afresh, removed all of my
ports and some garbage that was left, updated the ports tree
and reinstalled the ports I need, including XFree86-4.

The first time I ran startx, I saw an unnormal disk activity,
and that turned out to be xclock that is run by default.

Where do I go to check for this circular include you mention?
