it /usr/ports/math/gupppi remove as workaround:

   files/patch-src_libguppipilot_guppi-view-interval.c

and use my attached patch instead.

there is a typo in the original patch:

    libguppipilot => libguppiplot

the binary has dependencies to XFree86 libraries registered
therefore it tries to install them.

you can avoid that guppi builds against XFree86 libraries add
this line to /etc/make.conf:

X_WINDOW_SYSTEM=xorg

hope this helps!
