No, because it builds on my machine. It doesn't take that long so I just 
tried a portupgrade -puf. This is the package build part of it.

===>  Building package for XFree86-libraries-4.3.0_6
Creating package /usr/ports/packages/All/XFree86-libraries-4.3.0_6.tgz
Registering depends: fontconfig-2.2.90_4 expat-1.95.6_1 
freetype2-2.1.5_2 imake-4.3.0_2 pkgconfig-0.15.0_1.

'/usr/ports/packages/All/XFree86-libraries-4.3.0_6.tgz'

I did the build on a 4.9-stable but that shouldn't make a difference as 
far as this is concerned. I checked to see if I had build the Stub file 
and this is what I found

ruby# locate  libXThrStu
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXThrStub.so
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXThrStub.so.6
ruby# ll /usr/X11R6/lib/libXThrStub.so
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  16 Feb 12 03:28 /usr/X11R6/lib/libXThrStub.so 
-> libXThrStub.so.6

That has the right time of morning for my build. Something is going on 
for you but I don't have any idea.
