It's not graphics/php4-gd that depends on X11 itself, but the
graphics/gd port.

You can certainly install graphics/gd without having to install the
X11 client libraries -- you can even install it with Xpm support and
without the rest of X11.

Install graphics/gd like so:

    # cd /usr/ports/graphics/gd
    # make clean
    # make install WITH_XPM=yes WITHOUT_X11=yes

or, if you're a portupgrade user, add the following to the MAKE_ARGS
array in /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf:

    'graphics/gd'  =>  [ 'WITH_XPM=yes', 'WITHOUT_X11=yes', ],

Whichever way you choose, then go on to install graphics/php4-gd as
normal.

Actually 'WITHOUT_X11' is used by many ports that have optional X11
support, so for an X-less machine, putting WITHOUT_X11=yes into
/etc/make.conf is a pretty good idea.

	Cheers,
